    My 169bhp 1700 X-flow FOR SALE

    Regretable sale of my 1700cc Kent Crossflow. Some of you have seen it go and for those who havn’t I have included some videos for you. Selling due to a new engine install so need the funds to go towards that. The spec is:

    83.5mm Accralite pistons modified to “Harris Spec” to give true 1700cc capacity
    Polished, lightened and balanced rods and crankshaft (see pics)
    ARP rod bolts
    Lightened flywheel dowelled to crank
    AP racing clutch
    Wire rung block
    High pressure oil pump
    High lift cam
    Vernier cam pulley
    Duplex timing chain
    “Harris Spec” Vulcan head
    Double Valve springs
    Steel rocker posts
    Port matched and dowelled inlet manifold
    BRAND NEW Weber 45s
    MASS exhaust manifold (this is original and is much better than the later copies)
    Lumenition electronic ignition
    Lumention constant energy coil
    Bosch distributor fitted with Lumenition trigger eye
    8mm Magnecore HT leads
    Modified timing chain cover to allow easy cam timing alterations









    I have a rolling road sheet from Sanspeed to prove 169bhp at 7200rpm and timing slips from Santa Pod to prove 12.7 in my Mk2 escort. This engine has done less than 1000miles since I built it not even 6months ago and it has cost me 1000’s of pounds to build it to top specification. Hours of labour have gone into the build to get everything spot on. Absolutley every part possible was changed for a new item which includes giving the crankshaft a fresh 10/10 grind and changing the small end bushes and camshaft bearings which is often overlooked. I will remove the sump and head for the buyer so they can inspect it for wear and for proof they are getting the real deal and will refit everything for them with new gaskets.

    I am after:

    £3300 o.n.o Complete with Brand New 45’s and the Mass Exhaust manifold plus a stainless system to fit Escort (if required)

    OR

    £2800 o.n.o Without the above but still including the inlet manifold

    If interested please don’t hesitate to call me on 07841339049 or drop me a PM
