Try Rod Penrose, He has a lot of that stuff. But it all comes from o/s anyway.

Mango , if you need any advice or prices on engine , transmission or suspension components for your project , please send me a wish list and I will itemise it out for you . I keep enough parts in stock to build around 15 complete new engines at any one time . I also have a good selection of used parts , reconditioned parts and also trade a lot of parts that people have purchased from either myself or elsewhere , that don't suit their purpose any longer . I don't post in the for sale section any more as I have been asked not to by the administrators of this site . If you require a tax invoice , this isn't a problem as well , thanks ROD , 02-42729920 .
