I was in touch with that chap, he's been snowed under with messages so has pretty much given up responding.. Seems a nice enough bloke to talk to though.

He told me the engine is provisionally SOLD to the first person who contacted him.

If that falls through he'll offer it to the next person who contacted him and so on.

Of course, the other thing you need is a good head , with hopefully no cracks between the valve seats :wink:

Oh, and a good JX vibration damper unless you go for the AAZ pulley setup
