Im planning to fix my dead five towards the end of the month so im on the lookout for a C1J Block and Head preferably modified as im not sure the ancillaries i have i.e T28 and Carb (there might be other stuff) will match a std engine.

Im also interested in any "weekend Conversions". If you have anything please drop me a message i can only say no.

Cheers folks :D

I've got a spare bottom end and head if you want something you can build up.

Alternatively I've got two F7P bottom ends, two F7P heads, boxes full of spares, spare head gasket etc if you wanted to build an F7P conversion for it.

Cheers Chunk is the F7P the 2.0 from a williams? This is how bad i am :crap: is this conversion a straight forward one?

It's a pretty simple conversion, engine bolts in on standard mounts but you'd have to ditch the PAS pump

I stupidly left it at cleasbys in a rage last year when he wanted sackless money to build it back up :ashamed:

I still have everything else i just need a C1J block and Head to get it running. I've been looking for a modified engine to support the turbo and NOS but every decent engine i've seen has just come at the wrong time (usually skint) but now i have a bit of spare cash im gunna try and get it sorted.

Any Reccomendations from Matt like? ;)

Nah I don't think so. Just the engines I think.
Prob have a turbo but no manifold.
