B172K Engine

Post by broady81 » 26 Nov 2013 11:26 pm

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a bit more power in my 340. I'd love to have a valver (infact, I have an engine ready to go!), but they keep changing the damn rules (or threatening to!).

I'm after a B172K. Low mileage, or well looked after. Something solid, as it will be going in my rally car.

What have you got? PM with prices :)

Thanks

Matt

@Sven360; A red block uses different chassisrails attachments to be installed.
A B172 can simply be dropped in in a B14 compartment as they use the same set up.

I probably should have specified ladies legs in there too. [+=] "embarrarrased emoticon"[].com
