Does anyone know of the origins of the selection of blocks, heads, cranks, full Tuscan race AJP and S6 parts on Ebay? Being sold by Phil Eggington.

I looked into this and have been in discussions for a few months on and off. I decided that the parts werent for me ie expensive and potential for 'issues'.

The parts are being sold as if they were from a dealer, eg top prices for new stuff.

In reality you'd have no comeback, no warranty and no guarantee. I would only ever buy one of those if I could check them carefully first.

The steel crank for my 4.7 build would be nice though.

You and me both Gazza, although I first spoke to Phil when I was in Portugal last summer.

That was me in the speedos and flip flops standing behind him polishing his sump.

So are these pre-production prototypes of early AJP's?

I would have bought them all there and then but had nowhere to keep my cheque book in the mankini

I thought there was plenty of room round the front?

That stuff is paperweight material at best.
