The engine is now in the possession of the Delorean Club awaiting transport to me. Tyson and Al have worked hard today collecting and splitting the engine and gearbox. I owe them plenty of beer tokens for their help. Thanks guys

Matthew, i just noticed that the distributor cap on this engine has like a double king lead on it.I just bought a cap from ebay as a spare and it looks exactly like the one on this one. You can have it as a spare as I bet they are rare.

When you get the engine scan the lumenition instructions and send it to me. see if i can help out there.

Thanks Admin Bloke. Without the contributions of people like yourself, Mike, Arran, Al, TT, Tyson, Martin......the list goes on, I for one would have struggled in my time as a Delorean owner.
