Gone back to ancestral billabong, or something.

Yes.

 

There's some not too far away.

 

Good man; would you be interested in doing me a slight favour? This may
only be needed if the seller of this ebay item is unwilling to post to
Ireland. 'Buy it now' purchase at a good price - only just listed; if
I'd left it any longer it would have been gone.

 

This is the thing in question...

Not a problem - <reads rest of thread> let me know where in Bristol it
needs collecting from and when it can be collected.

 

Marvellous, a thousand camels thank you.

 

Yep. Commonly going for between 120 - 160 in as new condition. The new
price is supposedly 600 or so.

I thought I'd better grab one before they disappeared. Having said that,
there'll probably be a rash of them selling for peanuts now.

Remember the Timo'd Project? This is part of it. I've got the 12a rotary
lump to slot in, then get the car running. In the meantime I'll keep an
eye open for a 13b turbo lump to fit the blower to.

 

<reaches for tissues>

'Hog

 

Just the blower; even with that, there's an impressive limit - but I
don't want to be rebuilding engines every month. I think 300bhp will do.

Oh aye; most 'normal' engines will cope with a small boost of around 5
or 6psi without blowing up. I don't want to wreck the 12a lump, so I
might just leave that NA then take it back out for the dune buggy.

 

I'm back.

Howdo. No probs, it's sorted now. As it turns out, the bloke is just
round the corner from you.
