Title: Recomedation for Brisbane engine work
Post by: 57 Project on January 22, 2013, 02:36:00 PM
Ok, have the engine out of the FE and stripped. What I now need is someone to do the machine work for me. Any recomendations for someone in the Brisbane area (Southside preferably).
Have made one enquiry and that was 3K+ for parts and machining only. Assembly will be done by me and my Dad. I have to learn somewhere...

Well Angus, I can't help with recommendations as I am in Sydney, but someone here must be able to.
You know those Qlders, if it's not footy season, they have trouble getting out of bed.
Refreshing to bring back to the top.
Come on guys, help the young fella out.
Regards
Alex

Mine was built for an old fella that went up and inspected it and picked it up its not an ebay special but in saying that feedback is everything and tells the story.
