Go for an SDi engine, apparently they are the better ones.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Andrew and dad, I would prefer carbs and for Engine and box to be under £500 for a good 3.5 or upwards of that for a 4.6.
Thanks for the sites Piddy, have you had any experience of these? RPI seem to know their stuff.

Abbey sports at Wymondham in norfolk.
VERY helpful, quick on the posting, and is OK. Good prices, not quite as good as Real Steel, but still veryvery good. Used him for a lot of my Engine
rebuild.
RPI... The Dogs Dangly bits. Chris Crane is a V8 GURU. What they dont know isnt worth knowing. (Mate of mine is a personal friend of
Chris's).
However, a bit expensive, but very very good. Very good info on their site, DO read up about buying a V8 engine as there is lots of info on their
website about what to do andwhat not to, ie the colours in the engine. DONT Buy one thats Black and Gummy inside!!
Both in Norfolk!
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
