Wow- 2 years ago!!
Steve Dawson does some great work, I love following his posts.
It’s a shame there’s so many cowboys out there or companies who take the work on but then leave you waiting months/years to get your vehicle back.

Ed/ Sarah have given up on their new engine getting fitted. They’re going to review the situation and maybe even sell the van as it is. They’ve become disillusioned with the whole sorry episode!
