Morespeed

Bill Richards

look through a mini mag or do a search on here. Theres loads of well known good engine builders.

The bigger more known ones normally take longer to produce the goods due to demand, racing customers and such.

Dont buy a minispeed/minisport engine or engine kit. they seem to be of lesser quality engineering.

rob walker??

depends where abouts in the country you are too as obviously its better if you can go and drop things off and pick stuff up and have a face to face with the people who do the work...

Osselli are pretty good but a tad expensive.

I was gonna say swiftune. I know someone who had a 1380 engine built by MED, it went very well! I think it had about 100bhp.
