Lots of threads recently about rebuilding the F20C which may make you reconsider. Have a search, and there's even one next to your thread at the moment you could start with:

thanks mate, they do Racing cars of the 1950s and 60s!

are there any companies anyone on here has used before?

A member here B0ZWELL works for them. They really know their stuff, so would be worth getting in touch with.

AFAIK successful engine rebuilds are few and far between.


Having said all that, you'd probably be best off parting out your existing car, strip off the supercharger bits, scrapping it, and buying a new car with a working engine.

I'd love for someone to try and test a UK engine builder, hopefully with great success.

Oh great okay ill give them a ring

I cant really do that, ive spent about 15K on the car since i bought it - Paint work, chassis, coilovers, big break kit, wheels, headlights, all new bolts and powerflex bushes, Traction controll and all the labour and custom work ive had done in the bay and on the SC, it wouldnt be worth selling...

In that case, get on to breakers and source a newer engine, it's going to be much easier in the long run (and echoes what fluffyninja suggested in one of your other threads on this).
