Feed back on the engine.
Engine in poor state, not much wear on the sleeves though.
But looked liked it was not serviced regulary.
Wear on the camshaft lobes, cam followers, oil pump rotors ect.
Engine now with Tygerburg Engineering.
Will up date.

Cogbox OK but Engine fekked
Just to make all things equal leave out the good cogbox and put in my spare cogbox (that you still have) then both are in same condition
then send good cogbox to me

[Egbert Le Roux]

Thanks JB. Much appreciated.
