nope, he has a phone number though, lol!

He is a long way from u, but if you were to go ahead with him, im sure we could arrange a meet / postage for a head, and any work carried out by him. I dont mind helping out, or organising stuff if i gotta mate!

Chris fully rebuilt my VR6 engine, ported the head, re bored block, re ground crank etc, and my god is it amazing. Was overtaking 240bhp civic Type R;s on the last track day - out of sheer power gain, not out drving. Was on a straight, out of corner - GOODBYE CIVIC, LOL!!!

And he has also just done a full port and polish, rebuild, new valves, guides, etc on my G40 head, he's an amazing bloke, and very good at what he does!!!

Here's a few pics of his handywork:-

G40 head :-





And the vr6 engine
