Is your engine damage definately terminal?

As Revels has said above mate you need to join, but for the extras you get it's well worth the small fee

thanks i am now a paid memeber
r.e russ_16v as far as i am being told it needs a complete engine or remanufactured
just want to make sure i use the right people either way i hear lots of stories bout cowboy
companies claiming to have fully rebuilt engines and they go and fail weeks later with the
warranty voided for stupid reasons.
have you come across anyone who has needed the same and had a good outcome
cheers

Renspares are trustworthy for used engines. They'll tell you the mileage of the car it came out of etc. if you ask. They're great.
Others of us could rebuild/recondition for you. Location would help

As Dan said, get your location up and we'll be able to recommend local companies for you.
