North West Engine builders?

Does anybody have a list of engine builders in the North West? Or know anybody who's decent around Manchester, Preston area?
Looking at a zetec rebuild?
thanks in advance

There is Bannister Engines in Bamber bridge that seems to be well established and used by people in the know, real old fashioned style person.

I'd have thought it'd be cheaper to just buy another engine! Zebecs go for peanuts. Unless of course it's had lots of mods

There is a place on the corner of Taylor Road and Ashburton Road Trafford Park. Not sure of the name but just around the corner from one of our factories.

To do a proper rebuild I would have thought a new zetec off Ebay would be just as viable. I think one of the kit car companies were knocking them out.

Pistons, camshafts, water and oil pumps, gaskets, bolts, machining etc. suprising how it all adds up.

That'll be- B & J Motors

Specialize in competition engines and have their own dyno cell.
