Forged 220 turbo engine

Arias 85mm forged Pistons
M series rods
Piper 275 cams
Piper verniers
Arp head studs
Mileage under 20k, me personally since fitting this in April 2012 I have done under 7k with it. All pretty much at standard boost or under
Owned previously but never built up by imran, prior to that c2k and John p.
This was a well known engine a couple of years ago but I've done nothing with it bar a few thousand miles, I'm an embarrassment to the badge
Currently just interested in a what's it worth.
As a bare block as I bought it, but would also be interested in a price for it as is.
Eg everything bolted to it, gearbox, water pump housing, oil cooler, stainless pipe work, etc etc
Many thanks.

So you are adding £300 for car shell, turbo, manifolds, exhaust, etc? Seems a bit crazy. To say the least, unless the car shell is an utter dog and more an engine trolley.
Surely a better price would be based on a more recent sale of my old engine, je pistons on standard rods (as much as M series might take more they are not forged rods) That sold for £400
So I'd say £500-700 for the bare engine, considering cams, verniers and arp's but then beauty is in the eye of... etc.

I paid £700 for bare engine purely on reputation of previous owners
I knew this was a good one
