Cheers from the mountains of Montana in the USA.
Am looking for a 76-78 3.0L Turbo/Carrera engine block and found one with a guy named Bradley Oconnor in Blackpool.
Question is, how do I know if he/it is any good. Here in the states we merely put out the word through the Porsche Club of America (PCA) and you can usually get the true story on what's going on or how to check things out. Am hoping that works across the pond.
Here are my questions (either of which will help):
1. Anyone in the Club know of Mr. Oconnor of Blackpool?
2. Is there a shop you might recommend that has extensive engine building/racing experience near Blackpool that would know how to check out a bare engine block?
That's about it. Hope this finds my Porsche mates in the UK well and smiling. Spent quite a bit of time in Bournemouth a few years ago, would have loved to have had my 911 or 356 with me, the countryside is beautiful--as were the people.
