I have not looked into the full cost of buying & fitting a brand new engine but would imagine the total cost would be at least £1 - £1500 depending on the choice of fueling
If you are wanting a top end ECU you can add another £500 -£750
I have no idea as to the value of CVH parts.........My own was weighed in for scrap, shame really as it was a low milage good runner
Once your chassis is built, I am sure that you can find plenty of jobs to do whilst you are saving for an engine.
Fabricate all the wishbones, clean & overhaull some of the donor parts, put the floor in, seat mounts, roll bar etc
