you can mate, When i had my 182 i was moving house a few years back and like a pleb misplaced the service book, I approached my dealer and explained the situation.. I had a folder full of reciepts and im sure if the new owner is on here he will testify (J200 SPT).. Anyway paid £10 to get a new...
197 boot aint though, tried putting a buggy in the other day at mothercare for some trial runs.. Can only get a small crappy one to fit in nicely, The one she wanted had 2 hopes, Bob hope and no hope.. Bigger car needed :(
H'actually congratulations on the expected arrival !!

Will have everything you need for your car mate, Recommended highly on here, I've used them for parts and some services and they are top notch
Matched inlets is a good mod but it doesnt release much £ 200-300 iirc
Cams will be expensive, I think its 428's that are used but unsure on price, expensive though and may release 5-10bhp

Belt may have slipped with piston(s) VS valve(s) time, Happened on my 182 but got a new lump on warranty....
You gonna strip it down and rebuild Kev or source a new lump ?
Bad times though fella
