Wanted: L20 block

Post by skutaman »

Hey guys, my mate is looking for an L20 4cyl block, 89mm bores.
The successful block will have a beautiful life as the heart of Rege Cooks new race car.

So if anyone has or knows of one that is avaliable to live a new life, let me know :thumbsup:

I have one but wouldnt sell it for 10 grand if it was going anywhere near Reg Cook. He would be the most Arrogant man i have ever delt with when I was trying to buy a nismo head gasket off him, treated me like an absolute piece of shit and all i wanted to do was give him money and he hung up on me. Id rather give it away for free than see it go to him, Thats my rant over haha. Good luck on finding one.

What a shame, I hear hes difficult to have a conversation with. He knows his shit, but he doesnt need to sit on a throne above us.

Wow, he's that bad?
My friend Andrew, who's built his 180b up to an L18et (Pushing 245Hp atw/253Nm) is trying to find one for him.
I don't know if hes the one building it for him, but by the sounds of things Reg would be doing it..
