I didnt even know we had a watchlist on here?? I dont really have a clue aye, hopefully the sooner the better, but we all know how this sorta shit spirals outta control I probably need to get onto finding someone to build the engine, otherwise my block will diminish very quickly in the acid dip...

action dans charges arent really the issue, its the time. dpends what hes got going on aye, gets into alot of other stuff aswell like freestyle bmx etc depends tho if he isnt working on other cars could be in and out reasonably quick, in theory he could fab one up in a week or two. pm me if you want his number

Oh and James, if you're reading this, now you're living back at home, get your car on blocks and we can have a look at your wiring.
