Advanced don't blow their own trumpet but just get on with building top spec engines, I have had machining, skimming and honing done by them when my own engine was rebuilt.

Speak to Cath or Nick and they will help all they can, a brilliant company who I'd recommend 110%.

Id definitely contact Engine Tuner first intact I'd contact all the top builders for prices. Try Paul Finch too.

07790 877519, or if you google Finch Motorsport there is a link to his email & he is quick to respond. Do a search on here, Paul is highly reputable & I can personally recommend him after he rebuilt my engine.

Advanced Autos have built a couple of our local club 2.1s and are currently building a 2.35 I believe, one of the 2.1 is running circa 700 gee gees!

JayAllen - yep, they built the lump in that WR1.....
