I'm just doing another one myself - MB001293.  BR Motorsport have a good
specialist man.  I know him by sight and I've chatted with him while he
was working - he seemed to know exactly what he was doing and be taking
care over it.  When you put an I5 together, you're really hoping that
no one is going to have to take it apart again for at least a quarter
of a million miles.

Roger Galvin and I are now slowly turning our hobby into a business and
we're taking bookings.  We did Grieg Falconer's timing belt and brakes
last Saturday for GBP500 including parts - I think he got a _very_ good
deal.  We have a lad from Barnsley coming down to have his exhaust
manifold replaced, which is a mammoth job - he's paying a grand all
inclusive.

Why does the engine need rebuilding?  Would you like me to do it?
