He's about the best you'll get. Another very well known engine builder has called on his assistance when they have had troubles in the past. Shouldn't really say who but it's a big company better known by its initials :-)

He'll be building me a 2.1 engine next year. He has done a couple of services for me, 2 cambelt kit changes, fitted a clutch, fitted my sti8 tmic, fitted injectors and refurbished my rear brakes.

I used Howard for a rebuild about 4 years ago and was very impressed with the service, continued to use him for parts since then, a great bloke to deal with, would recomend him to anyone.

Only thing is the walk from Hebdon Bridge up to his premises is a killer!!

If your towing a trailer try and approach from the A6033 from Keighley as you'll struggle getting up the hill from the town, I know I did.
