   ive just come across a right little project in wales so might be selling my cammed vts engine and mapped ecu for a good price. (i may be running a boosted garrett powered vts lump soon!)

   78 iirc on mine at the min, i think the timing has slipped a tooth though as its very under powered at the min (135 bhp@ fly) not good. so ill try get it sorted first before selling it
