Have a load of block, and crank work to be done in the Plymouth (+80 miles) zone. After a good level of workmanship and sensible costs.

Is it for the Mini?

I would try Pete Willis Engineering in Tavistock.

I have heard about Paul Inch and his latest research seems up my street.

In a nutshell, I am looking to build a strong engine which to sit an Eaton M45 Supercharger on. I can do this myself but may (probably) require a crank regrind and wedged, a +20 overbore, block decked to the height of the pistons. I will be modifying my head/pistons myself.

So, the crank work is important that it is done well, I will have a chat to both of these guys.

It's all got to be on the road for Le Mans, that entailing getting it set up properly. According to my calculations, I should hopefully top out at 125mph (and get there quickly!!!).

Thanks, stu
