Long time no post, engine rebuild help needed

[DuncanM]

Hi everyone,

Haven't posted here for a while. Unfortunately I had to SORN my car in December 2006 due to a multitude of reasons.

One of those reasons was a headgasket going.

This effectively made me decide on taking the car off the road until I could get an engine refresh done on the car.

I'm finally in a position where I can start thinking of putting the Cerb back on the road.

What I'd like to do is use a local garage (like and trust) to remove the engine, and then send it off to get the work done at a trusted approved engine builder.

So the question is can i have some recommendations for where I can send the engine to get the work done.

I'd like copper gaskets if possible and I'd like the shims done, and anything else that needs doing.

The engine is a runner and turns over straight away to 1000rpm idle (which kinda makes me smile and want to cry if you know what I mean).

Any replies much appreciated .

Yours

Duncan

I've heard many good things about 'Castle Race Engines'.
Chap is called Jamie, and I have spoken to him on the phone before for advice. Very friendly and approachable.

either of the above two seem highly recommended, I use apm myself, also tvr power do many rebuilds of ajp, which means they know them inside out also.
