Cheers - have heard good reports as well.

 

How many times has it failed on you mate?

 

Can't go wrong with Neil at Slowboy.
Built my forged 2.5 when my SpecD had ring land failure, very good price and great quality.

 

It's been in 'failure' for last 9 months - no major signs but a little oil in coolant, etc. I haven't enjoyed driving the bloody thing out of fear of HG going but then kept getting told it could have been replaced before I bought it and would still show some oil in coolant, etc. Gues I have been in part denial too! Got bored of reading the threads on here but that's exactly my story too.

 

Thanks Oiler - will bell him tomorrow.

 

Few other options in East Sussex, I use Brent at SMD (Newhaven) for all my work.

 

Spec D dropped off at Slowboy Racing this morning. Who's Spec D was on the ramp with the same problem as mine?
