Re: Urgent advice please!

I'll give him a call - many thanks.
The guy has obviously done the opposite to most too - put a Rev1 head on a Rev3 engine. All the posts I've been reading are the opposite.

Re: Urgent advice please!

To be clearer,(sorry),his exact words are "the pistions are broken and the valves are all bent,it's unbelievable"
As you said,sounds complete BS to me too. The engine wouldn't have run in my car for starters!
Would he have issues running everything Rev1 with Rev3 head (loom etc)

Re: I've created the new Toyota MR1!

I was happy with £40. I had no way of moving it,so scrappy we're going to remove it free,then I got a message from scrap metal collector offering £30. Pushed them up to £40. Was hilarious,as they'd never collected a car before,and showed up in a Transit! We decided it would fit if we cut it in half....
