Well you might get answers to your questions and learn something as well.
As a SP6 owner and with one that has already had a rebuild, I'm not that interested in what was and possibly still is wrong with the engine design and/or components used. Surely this is just going over old ground yet again. I've already taken the plunge and bought one with eyes wide open. What I am interested in is how people are solving these problems and at what cost and correct me if I'm wrong but AM is not offering a solution that someone can buy from him.S5TVR said:

But he is offering a good engineering overview about this and all engines upon which to base your decision. It's odd that many seem to incorrectly dissmiss this event as a sales pitch whereas you dissmiss it because it is not a sales pitch, lol. Either way it is unlikely to ever happen now; a great loss.S5TVR said:

Sorry Daftlad I need to be more careful where I make my insertions in future !. For the avoidance of doubt and any legal proceedings twas my car that had the rebuild and not Daftlad's.Did I mention that I'm a psychic and often see into the future !

Maybe......but so far MrsS and I have owned over 150 vehicles and had only two engines let go. A 289 Griff that decided the flywheel no longer wished to be joined to the engine, the other when a conrod stepped out of the block in a Mk II Lotus Cortina whilst trying to keep up with a 600cc motorbike
. I was a young hooligan then without much respect for motors...bit like many of the current .....no best not go there.
No comments about old hooligans please.
