I just thought I would ask in here before I go and have a look.

My engine, bottom end etc in the case is in need of an overhaul, does anyone know
of can recommend somewhere thats reliable and knows what's going on.

It's been a lot of years since JH Aircooled rebiult it, but he is no longer trading, the job that was done
has been quite amazing and it would be nice to find somewhere else that's got
the same approach, ie, know what they are doing.

Thanks for any info you can give, its not urgent but the oil pressure is starting
to behave as it would when an engine starts to wear, as long as I take
it easy alls fine, though the hot weather plays its part and its starting to drop due to the clearances
with everything opening up....

Thanks
Peter  :)

If you can't fix it with a hammer it's not broken!!!

Thanks everybody for the links,

I have been looking around and am just waiting to find out how much it might be  ::)

To be honest I would so like to do this myself but that wont be happening as I
haven't the proper space.

The engines done so well and I want to be able to do it all again  ;D  ???
