I need a backup engine builder to bore, hone and deck my block should my preffered choice be too busy in the next week or two.

Preferably in SE or near northampton.

Must have experience of subaru engines.

Cheers

Paul

Many thanks to Steve at SMG, made to feel very welcome, even without the aid of sponges.

Very impressed with how little space can be left in a given building after being filled with machines!

Steve.

 

that looks like my closed block on the facing machine.

Boys with toys

 

They certainly aint toys...

I would guess at a workshop with close to £500k -> £1m worth of tools..

 

and about £3m in spare bearing shells

 

I meant our engines were the toys

 

Paul
That is indeed you block, all the engines are on the short list, just the short list is getting a bit long
