hi the timing case is the least of my worries it needs rebore the crank needs re grinding all the valves need seating and plus the timing case is really corroded its been got at before and they drilled it in to casing not through the thread to replace broken bolts and its very thin just not good and the oil pump bit is very scored when we pulled it to bits it had instant gasket all over it and its got a hole in and it had a bolt sealed in to it and light house want nearly  300 for a timing case sow with price of every thing else cant c its worth it  the moter cost me 650

the one I got out back was sweet till a fuel pump failure diverted petrol into the sump, luckily I noticed as soon as there was a noise from the bottom end and as far as I can tell it just needs shells, no marks found on the crank and good compression.

as I said before not really that keen on selling but would let it go to help a birty but would need £400 or will do the shells and keep it as a spare as will probably blow up the one I got in Tonka at some time  :003:
