if Monkhouses engine was built by Hayward, make sure you keep your existing engine as a spare........ you'll probably be needing it.

Re: Mick's Red S3; New hoops!
lol. As I recall the last Hayward bridgeport seen in public was in their "drag" car... presumably so called because it was a right drag. Maybe there was a reason Mazda went to all those tedious lengths to develop water seals after all
