Default Wanted:Adelaide Engine Rebuilder

Am now looking for someone to rebuild my Clevo (mild, nothing fancy wanted) or possibly replace the existing engine with a second hand or rebuilt engine.

Is it worth considering getting a rebuilt short block or does the economics not work?

Can anyone give me some tips re a reliable repairer in Adelaide or perhaps a supplier of a rebuilt Clevo?

Thanks in advance,
Graham

I`ve seen good reports on the forum for C J Performance in Hackham 08 83824794
don`t know him but he seems more than happy to give good advice on the old Clevo motors to forum members

Actually I do know Craig well and he is very good with "old school" Fords especially the Clevos.

Am currently considering

LA Motor Repairs, 7 Crittendon Rd Findon, Ph 8345 3991 (Lawrence or Anthony)

OR
CJ Performance Hackham Ph 08 83824794 (Craig)

Both have been extremely helpful, I'll make a decision today or tomorrow.

Regards,
Graham
