use part search or trawl the breakers in MCN, there were a few engines when I looked for someone else a month ago.

well my engine plans may be falling through.

i may not have any other option than to break it for bits cos i just cant afford to get another engine. it could be repaired but i dont know anyone with either a mig with aluminium wire or a tig welder at all

anyone in derby with a mig or tig with ally wire? :cry: :cry: :cry:
