Looking for an engine builder

#1 PostAuthor: GBZ1000 » Sat Nov 22, 2025 9:31 pm

Does anybody have any recommendations for somebody who can undertake an engine rebuild for me?

My engine has started to smoke on startup (I suspect the valve stem oil seals or valve guides), and I would also like the camchain and guides to be changed.

I’m based in Lincolnshire, so somebody nearby would be ideal. Thanks.
Cheers

Graham

Chris Tombleson at Grumpy 1260, is near Downham Market, so not too far from you. Really knows his stuff and a nice bloke.
