If you got the 1275 it would be phat! :grin:

Im still after an MG 1340 engine to drop in to mine. I think I would beable to do it with a weekends work. Thats if its a case of undoing a few engine mounts, lifting it out. Droping the new lump in and conecting everything up.

I think its the Lifting of the engine which wil catch me out! :tongue:
