Hello all, been off the scene for way too long and think i need a bit of help now.

I put the car on hold while i was saving £4k to do a decent job on a t-series engine swap (didnt realise how long it actually takes to save that kind of money!)

anyway, in that time it seems the big names like AA autosport and Rovertech have vanished! or at least im not doing a good job of finding them (think it was those guys. See its been so long im not even sure who im looking for anymore)

Do they still do the engine swaps? if not, is there anyone else? i wanted to have a few chats with them and way up my options before i get stuck in! i know Dan (carmadbaker) knows a fair bit and i can always pick his brain, but i havent really got the facilities to do it at home so thinking i might get the professionals to have a go for me.

AMW Motorsport are in Bradford, so not too close to you either.

Then a tank of fuel and a rail ticket back, or even one of those cheap air tickets, if you get a good price for the conversion!!!

Indeed, Falkirk is very close to Edinburgh airport and the train station is literally a mile from the ZRed workshop
