Smiles Engineering In Newcastle

[Bigtimmy 1]

Hello all,

 

Looking for a bit of info on the above company if anyone has any.

 

I'm looking at buying an engine that has had some head work done by these guys and wondered if anyone had used them in the past.

 

Are they any good ?

 

The engine I'm looking at is a freshly built 8v which has had head work (skim valves etc) and a cam put in it (shimmed up correctly), the bottom end is lightened and balanced, lightened flywheel etc etc. The guy selling has an identical engine which he says has been dyno'd at nearly 180 bhp with a set of 45's, which sounds very optomistic.

 

Any thoughts on the overall package?
