MJH2454 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I'm looking to buy a short engine for a 1500 Spitfire, Canley Classics list them but despite many telephone attempts I can't get to speak to anyone. Ideally I want to buy a short engine, with reprofiled camshaft as MK3 and Duplex timing gear, any recommendations as to where else I can go, I have the short engine for rebuild so dont need to purchase outright. In and around Central England would be useful Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I doubt any of the suppliers keep short engines on the shelf. So you may be better getting a local engineering shop to grind the crank, rebore and supply the bits. Canleys can supply the cam, or indeed any other engine parts you would need. I know the phones are not manned all day, but try various times and persistence will pay off. Maybe I am lucky, but last time I called I got straight through.
