Default Engine Rebuild in Kent

Hi peeps

Anyone know where I can get a good engine rebuild for my WRX blobeye in the kent area or southeast?

Had my car 2 weeks and had it serviced today and then a power run as the car is stock and wanted a base figure. it's only done 39000 miles 1 owner and full service history.
When I left the place that serviced the car I could hear a knock from the engiine so took it straight back and they are looking at it tomorrow.
The engine was fine when I took it there so i'm hoping it's just something loose or the worst case is the big ends.
The previous owner could have put a thick grade oil in to hide the noise and now a good synthectic oil has been used it's highlited the problem?
Who knows, guess I will find out tomorrow.

So atm i'm looking at the worst case scenario, that way I can't be anymore peeeeved off!

Paul

One option would also be Andy Williams (Williams Motorsport) he'll take your engine in part ex or rebuild your unit and courier each way - very competitive prices.
