Big Thankyou

[nicko]

Big Thankyou to Andy, Rob, Dan and Mark for for dismantling my car!

As you may have seen from Dan's post, what started out as a cambelt replacement, ended as an engine out, and strip down, to find a severely mangled con rod and crank.

Before anyone asks, I wasn't driving like a loon at the time, just heading home from our local meet a week and a half ago.

No problem mate when your ready for rebuild let me know I will pop over cheers for the tea and sausage sarnies

Has the top end survived?

[Grim]

no, needs new cam, rockers, and 2 solid valve strike marks on pistons suggests 2 valves.

 

Glad to be of service nick, shame it turned out worse than expected!

Ive got rockers, a mixture of different pinto valves and maybe even a std cam (somewhere). pm me exactly what you r after and i'll see what bits ive got.

Sourced a complete 205 engine, just got to fetch it, then find time to install it. I'll put a call out for assistance when I can find a slot in the diary.
