The engine ran o.k with no smoke just the noise.
Sensible offers please, as I may break it.
Danny;
i assume the engine is out the car already? - if it is, it will take no time at all to whip the head off, drop the sump and pull out the crank and rods - should take no more than 1hr 1/2
get the relevant bits sized and checked - that way you'll get rid of all the jokers offering 500 quid.
