Alright, the buyer picked up the gearbox. And told me he was interested in the 2L engine i have as for spare. It's from an Argenta 120 i.e. Already sold the injection system to Stathe174 
So next question is: What is a fair price for this engine?

Argenta pistons are high compression if I remember right. However what counts is the mileage. With or without head? Engine block, without head and usable without rebore/honing, mileage under 100k, I would consider 300 a fair price. The value is definitely higher than that of a standard 2000TC with flat pistons which I would value at 200 max (without head). Don't know valve dimensions of Argenta engine, assume they are smaller than 130TC? Then a fair price for the head would be 100 to 120.

This is my idea of fair prices. On ebay they might get more, but you cannot count on that. I've seen complete 2000TC engines go for 100 to 700 Euros, first price is ridiculous and second price is high (for standard engines without rebuilt heads or other gimmicks).

It's block + head. Don't know milage but it runs fine. Used this engine in my replica.

Mike if you need the injection I can sell it back to you at a fraction of the gearbox price: 300 is it good enough?
Seriously now why I have the feeling that the 120ie is actually running better than the standart twincam?
