LCB to match will follow, but no carbs, starter, radiator, alternator or gearbox will follow.

I would guess it would be around the value of a comparable 1380 engine.

Thanks for the reply. What the going rate for good 1380s then these days? Trying to decide if I should put it on the shelf or sell.

I'd guess £1500 ish for the lot, It is quite specialist though, so could fetch more. Especially if someone was looking for an engine for a 1071 car, as I assume is using an a-series block.
