Clubmans crossflow
Having now had my crossflow looked at it appears that I need:
New Cylinder Head (currently Burton st3)
711 Block
forged pistons + all the bits
or is there an engine out there available I could transplant?

Stick in a 2.0 Zetec. They cost peanuts to buy and generally totally reliable. Even as standard they produce more power than a all but the most
expensive all steel x-flow and offer far better drivability.
I accept that the fitting costs a few pounds but there are many more bits out there now than there were when I did it at much better prices.
Much as I love x-flows (had them in cars since 1974) its just not worth spending good cash on them now unless racing regs insist on total originality.
