Here it is

Write here for written confirmation of engine age

Send them a letter quoting engine number and they will in turn write back with confirmation.

thunderace,

That table you posted, do you have a it scaned in a usable format like JPG. I'd love a print out if you wouldn't mine.

Cheers.

their pretty good - but if you have no engine number, they are unable to supply one but can confirm in the case of a crossflow say, that the last one was made in xxxx year.

Alternatively a copy of the burton power catalogue suffices as far as SVA is concerned.

Just what i was thinking KOOK , so do they charge?

Cheers

They don't charge for the letter . if you phone them you will also get the info over the phone but the line costs £££ per minute

Unfortunately the telephone call is no proof of age either
