they've been soda blasted and rebuilt with new parts. Job for the pros really as there's a knack to getting blast media out of all the little fuel/air lines! used to cost about £150 for a pair where I used to work.

Chances of someone in aberdeen doing that are slim :(
Have read about using bicarbonate of soda and other household chemicals but i bet the finish isnt as good.

3 engine builders in 15s on google, including bill falconer, who may well be booked up for a long time as he builds some pretty impressive engines but I bet he'd know who could do it locally.

Cheers for that, much appreciated! Im actually going across the Falconer's this time home as was going to see if they could clean up and rebuild my cylinder head. Il ask about the carbs too.
