Anyone recommend an engine builder in Bristol/N. Somerset?

Drew400:
Hi all,

Now that I have a big pile of cleaned and new parts, I'm wondering if I have bitten off more than I can chew.

Originally, I was thinking about putting it all back together, but talk on this forum of new bearings, plastiguage, etc. makes me wonder if my hand needs holding by someone who's done it before.

Can you recommend anyone who can help me? I don't want to ship all my parts to a workshop and then pick up a shiny completed unit. Much of the fun is doing it ones-self and learning in the process (as pretty much everyone on this forum will understand). That said, I don't want to make some elementary mistake that ruins the whole thing for lack of half an ounce of experience!

Views/suggestions (for Bristol/North Somerset area) much appreciated.

Cheers, D.

Don't worry Drew, we are here to hold you hand. Well give you all the advise you need. I have been building Honda engines for some 26 years now. So get your camera out and take some pic's. Then post them and we will advise.

Cash ,  enthusiasm, time...... All,that you need.
Plus a list of good suppliers for paint and plating etc.... :D

Trigger:
Paint is cheap. Loads of money is vapour blasting the engine but, it is a top finish.

Trig, quick question about vapour blasting..a) who do you use and b) is it safe on bearing surfaces in heads (cam journal area)?
