What would a 100kw engine be worth?

I can buy 100kw engines for $200

A better question is how much would it cost to build a 100kw A15?

Well we were talking about a15's so I didnt think I would have to stipulate an a15.

Yeah, you're right, don't need to specify A15 given the context.

So far no one is giving cost estimates. I'm sure they could get 600 HP out of an A15 given a $350,000 budget. For one thing they could machine a new block and head out of billet.

I was thinking that what it's worth is not as interesting as what it costs to build. Because there aren't very many for sale.

A 100kw engine worth ..is that a trick question ?? factor in reliability/quality parts etc. Even then you could blow a 15k motor if you treat it wrong in minutes. Im upto 6k+ on a motor and hoping to get a tough 100kw's. I believe around $3500 to $4000 for something respectable.

Ok I haven't dynoed my motor yet but I've been promised 140-150atw and cost me $4300 that's without carbys clutch elec ignition nd fuel pump etc that's just motor work

whats done for that price, engine size, what type of pistons/head work/comp/cam/rockers, etc for $4300.00,who built it.is it a N/A engine.

That's an A15. Add $1500 for the twin carbs & the other stuff.

Someone should do a spec engine, a formula easily reproduced, then dyno it. A "how to make 100kw".

Too bad Nismo doesn't sell crate engines.

Thats a great idea DD.

If someone in Vic wants to do a documented build up, I`ll supply the dyno.

the white a15 turbo ute is now in the 10's i thought

a spec motor would be pretty sweet, but would you have to do it a few time to get an average result?
