Theres an engine for sale at central TVR near Coventry that im interrested in. The car the engine came from was involved with flood / water ingress in 2015, related to the fire at central.

I need someone that knows engines, preferably with a borescope, to check it out.

100 pounds to the right person!

I don't have a boroscope to help but I believe you're mixing up TVR specialists.

TVR Power are near Coventry. Central TVR are in Kingswinford; they moved from Stourbridge after the fire.
