If I do this will I be shot? bascially the engine I was going to use neds a rebuild whcih I am perfectly happy to do, but I have been offered a TP short engine with a dead botom end, as My cars original engine is all rather good with the exception of the block I am considering using this TP block to rebuild the cars original engine (all the oringcail parts with the exception of the block and tappets will be retained) where does this rate on the originality stakes? I actually think it woudl be rather good, one of teh forst with the block from one of the last!

Who could object to saving an SD1 with parts from an already dead and stripped SD1? Get the block before it goes to a kit car builder
