Title says it all, my high RPM engine is for sale. With the Lola being slated for SCCA 13 Hour Charge of the Headlight Brigade enduro duty and being built as such, this motor will be far outside of what is needed for doing that job. This engine is new, all new components, and has not been used at all.
The engine will be shipped on a solid steel stand and inside of a crate. I can ship anywhere in the US for probably $300-$600 and will ship overseas too, I'd imagine that $700 to 1200 would do that. If I ship overseas I'll put whatever you wish on the invoice for customs - used engine at $800 USD is fine on the invoice if needed. I'll even make it dirty if needed for inspection.
I hate to sell it but this thing has been in my garage for two years awaiting the Roaring Forties car since the high RPM rebuild, almost five years if you count when I bought the original 342 Stroker to go in the Roaring Forties car. Time to let go. Receipts total $6500 for the high RPM rebuild it underwent in 2005, the original new engine that I bought was $5XXX, therefore right at $12,000 invested in the engine. Asking $9000 for the motor, shipping can be sorted via my company shipping and you'll pay actual rates if you wish me to handle; I think they'll be in the ranges quoted above but would check before worrying about money transfer.
