Yeah, he wanted £1200 for it about 18 months ago or something like that.
I've got a early style 13B that really wants pulled down. Let me know what spares you got.
PM me if you like.

Shows big primary bridge ports. Secondary are also bridge ported?

Re: Keith's red S3
The spare engine he gave me looks rough, the other parts were induction stuff, starters and alternators. I also have a 13b that was given to me years ago, its very odd, its auto and has mounts on both sides of the centre iron (nothing on the sump). It also has a cast manifold that Ive not seen anywhere else.TOOL wrote:Yeah, he wanted £1200 for it about 18 months ago or something like that.

Pip thought it might be off a parkway bus

Re: Keith's red S3
I should think so Pete, not sure if I will be able to live with it yet though so I might have swapped back by then
We have to try these things though.
