Yes you could do that but they are very expensive for engines.

I have never had any problems with them, in fact i rang them up for help with my engine and he talked me through some of it and they wernt getting anything out of it. Go up and have a look and see what you think of the setup, they are probably the most reasonable conversion specalist garage (eg courtenay, regal etc)

thev helped me out a numbeer of times in the past, only had 1 complaint when they solf me a fualty engine, then kept saying they wer getting a replacement and never did so ended up geting a full refund and kepping the engine for spares.

I wouldnt use them. They messed me about for about 7months and in the end the job wasnt done properly. In the end I just said im coming to get it and im taking it how it is! I wouldnt trust them with a skoda. They are good for parts but totally shit for work! There abit of a bodge it and leg it!

I take it you werent to happy with them either then? It took me a while to realise the work they had done was s**t. The dash wasnt bolted in properly, they handnt bleed the brakes, my bonnet has started to crack, I gave them a 1.6 and they f**ked that up and then they gace me a GTE engine which blow up big time after 7 weeks, they were supposed to run my piper cam in which they didnt and all the lobe's on the cam were f**ked. Plus it took them 7 months to do this. I went up there after 6 months and it was sitting out in there yard in primer. Everytime I seemed to go up there which was about 120miles from my house they were always sitting about drinking tea. I had been told to report them to trading standards. Just had to let off a bit of steam!!! They f**k me off! They should be called JUST BODGE IT!
