Get in touch with Burton, http://www.burtonpower.com
They sell these CGI blocks so I'm pretty sure the internals are stocked there too. Be prepared to empty your slush-fund to pay for it all though
Why you want a block made of CorruGated Iron is beyond me though

if you can get one cheap you very lucky...hope its not off ebay as the one's ian howell was selling are proper wrc ones and will be no good what so ever as every internal part has to come from the wrc parts bin

i dont know the difference between the different types of cgi block ,only found out the other day that there was a difference...it was descused on oddkiddcreations and decided that these blocks arent worth doing unless you can get the right internals or are a master engineer....burton power sell the useable type might be worth speeking to them.. it was said that these blocks cost £5000 new and are going on ebay for £150 !!!! if they are useable why isnt ian howell using them him self

RS_seg :Carbon Graphite Impregnated
What does that mean? And dont just say its impreginated with carbon graphite because that would make a weird baby.
Just because I keep talking about definetly doing it doesn't mean I'm actualy going to do it.

Talk to Ian Howell. He is the only one who really knows what works and what doesn't with this CGI WRC blocks.
btw, I can tell you that they need alot of work to get into a road car.
Also, if you are going to keep the zetec under the 400bhp then the CGI block will only serve you for glamour since the std zetec block is up to the job.
