nah, will have been crushed a long time ago
Could be a nice little earner that 19 if the price doesnt go to high. Could potentially double your money by selling the williams engine to some clio idiot for a grand. |

no way, flog the williams lump for £800 to a clio idiot, then buy a megane F7R for £200-£300 and whack that in. Then youve got profit and an even better still engine. |

I would only find that route preferable if you had the skills and expertise to work round the problems you get for using the '710 over the '700 myself. In my position for example, it would workout more expensive to take the Williams out, and plumb the Meg lump merely because I have little or no 'hands-on' skills, as Chris well knows!
Also, unless your a silent witness on here nobody outside of RR/RSC is likely to be aware of the problems in attempting such a conversion! |
