    Ok, so tell me about this engine. What's its history, condition, age...

    What does it come with? Are we talking about a ready to run engine that's part of the front stuff up?

    Has it been stored for a while? Has it be been stored properly?

    Jimmie, I don't suppose you've got a spare throttle cable lying about the garage? I've passed by a few times going to the Saints matches, and keep saying to my son, ' must pop in and say hello', but there's always something to rush back home for.

    Yeah Thanks Colin. I mailed them yesterday infact. Just thought if Jimmie had one spare, I'd be as well paying him for one.

    No problem jimmie. I will make a point of popping in to see you when I'm back home. So you are moving lock/stock and all to George st? When do you expect to be flitted then?

    Hi this may sound like a dum question but would this motor drop straight into a standard road car and run? How much tie up is there between the engine ecu and the rest of the car. Im just a newbie regards terry

    No it won't. Not enough space for a 32V. Trying to link it to the rest of the car via the Gateway ECU will be difficult as well.

    Anything is possible with know how and money... but yeah doesn't fit straight in and generally you will loose the heater matrix etc... If you were going to have a track day car only then this would be a good purchase.

    I am definitely still up for the VHS Kit.

    Going away for a week though tomorrow night so might not be on here as not sure if the resort has internet. So yeah hopefully I can get on if we have movement but if not I will be back online Sunday 8th April.
