Are S2's considered? Not really interested right now tbh as i have other things to buy first, but it is a solid thought.
Could they be made with bits added on or would they be original copies? For example i couldn't buy a brand new loom then cut it up to fit a turbo timer and alarm, but if they could be integrated i might make the push.

Any rough idea of price at this stage?

ok cool, like i said not on my immediate list but there comes a point when you just need to cut you losses and spend some money rather than waste time and effort on inferior parts!

A full ERST loom ,but with an OFAC or OFAB engine loom would be a winner! If a little expensive as it'd prob be a 1 or 2 off!
