Thanks Rob, so Volkspares were not rated very highly ? I see Laurie Petit got the thumbs up in that thread.

I bought the components to rebuild the 2.1 of sh 1Te from them ... including a brand new 2.1 crank :P camshaft etc etc they were a doddle to deal with .... and VERY knowledgeable (2.1DJ parts appear to be a conflicting assortment of other engine bits and they called back to check what engine it was for)

Not got round to rebuilding them all yet though :lol: Dark nights etc etc :lol:
