Who was it might have wanted my coated headers?

I sold the rest of my exhaust system on Monday, sealing the decision that I won't be fitting a 4 cylinder back in my car, so if you still want them they are available, I just dont remember who wanted them.

Other bits are also available:
head (probably got 2 bent valves and guides, but was refurbed 8,500 miles ago so worth resurrecting)
radiator
various hoses (many nearly new)
turbo (Lindsey Super 75 and K26/8, both under 5,000 miles use)
inlet manifold
cam cover
fuel rail
alternator
brackets
engine mounts
Linsdey hard pipes with TiAL Monster Blow Off Valve
3" stainless intake pipe
the biggest K&N that will fit behind the headlight (with the stabiliser bracket cut off)
belt covers
Linsdsey oil catch can
anything else I haven't mentioned that is part of the engine and isn't within a con rod's length radius of #4 big end
 
Actually I had a bit of a chat with Paul and we've come to an arrangement on Tony as a powerplant. I don't think Paul really wanted the bonnet bulge, but that doesn't bother me.

Seriously though I have got a plan in mind, but I still have some minor details to sort out before I'm even thinking of publishing the detail. It will be LSx based though, that is for sure.
 
To be honest I'm finding the running costs of Tony are a little higher than I expected. I was expecting the voracious appetite for Optimax, but it's the frequent stops for Perrier when he gets a bit warm that have caught me out.

I have to admit I am looking forward to getting him on the Dyno though [8D]
 
I have heard that this model of powerplant is very prone to severe water loss in the high temperature climate we are currently experiencing.
 
Unfortunately, Allan's dyno only works for fat bastards, so Tony will be at a disadvantage against a more robust powerplant.

You can tell me which bits are 'essential' when you arrive later on today. Cheque book at the ready [:(]
