I can't keep up with you doubles mate.....is that the ebay one? I thought you didn't get that in the end? I think old Nick was after it too but you keep gazumping him :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iow_corrado_g60 0 Posted July 21, 2006 nice one will can you just recap your engine drama to me please in a few sentences as i've missed it i just knew you were rebuilding it! what you actually doing now then and what happened in germany? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted July 21, 2006 IOW - I 'won' a 24v v6 off ebay but the gernam mo fo seller was actually a dirty little tea leaf - a few people off here got stung I think, but I was the stupidest!! :) Anyway, since then I changed my mind and was gonna rebuild the 12v. But now I have a brand spanking new head, block and pistons with zero miles on!!! (for way less than a rebuild) :) I'm going to get some work done to the crank/buy another crank to try and get some nice torque flowing. Then its time for a peloquin and we're off.

double-6s 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Kev - tis the one off ebay. I didn't win it originally, but the winner backed out so it was relisted. And now its mine. I also won the new head that NickVR6 was after. And just to rub salt in the wound, I snuck those azev a's he wanted!!!! (sorry dude) :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted July 21, 2006 well done Will, should be great when its all done, have you ever thought of going to germany, and see the robbing Kraut in person?? with some (gentle) persuasion :evil: i'm sure you would come back with the money :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Hi mate. Oh yes, I've thought of it believe me!! I also owe visa a kicking for completely misinforming me about my rights, getting the money back, etc. cnuts :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch24V 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Out of interest how much was that block Will? I think it's the same one that Stan mentioned a while back. I called the guy and he said I could have it for £700, as like you say the original ebuyer pulled out. Then the 24v came along so I left it. Hope you got a bargain then??

double-6s 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Thats what I paid mate. I'm happy with that as it's basically the same as new pistons and a rebore. And its about £2.3k from veedub!!!! :shock: It's not the one from a while ago i don't think - I was after that one too. This one was originally listed a couple of weeks ago. And its gonna look spanky beneath its new head! :) How's the beast mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch24V 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Yeah that' a good price for sure :) Which beast are you referring to mate - the one with 4 wheels or the one with 4 legs ? :) The 4 wheeled one is coming along slowly, but surely! :D Dutch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Wheeled :) Don't mention the other beast on here again mate - you'll get whinged at! ;) So let me guess........ you're onto the wiring???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 24v 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Its THE EXACT same one from a while ago ;) I spoke to Shaun about it and he remembered me. Thing is, me and Dutch decided to add the extra valves ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted July 22, 2006 blah blah blah....24v this, 24v that :) I'm happy with my BRAND SPANKING NEW vr lump thanks fella :) Seriously mate - thanks for going to collect it the other day. And thanks for the spin in your motor today - I can't tell you how hard i had to try to stop myself from absolutely ragging the sh*t out of it!!!!! :) I have to say the 24v does feel fantastic - amazing throttle response and low-end pick-up. Tasty tasty very very tasty. It's very tasty :) PS. I'm thinking long throw crank and schrick :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
