Boys got good advice about putting the k-series engine into the midget, megajolt it is, but (isn't there always)

Who sells the kits for them, I really only need the board and a component list as I work a bit with electronic's and have a few bit and bobs in work.

the $ <-> £ means it is quite cheap but you may get stung for customs duty

Got my kit from autosports labs.
About £45 all in.
Didn't seem to get hit for any import taxes.
It had a value of £16 stated on the box and stated miscallaneous electrical components.
This must have been the cost price of the components, not what I had payed?

They send so many to the UK and know the UK Import rules so state a price that keeps the kit below the threshold for Import Duty / VAT. If you search through the Direct.gov website you will see the above threshold is at £16 strangely enough!!
