Any help/info appreciated.
Just got the great news that the engine in the EK is cactus.
Anyone looking to part with theirs or know of one?

Many Thanks, Paul

Significantly less compression in 2 cylinders.
Not sure if its going to be worth it pulling it all down and finding more shit wrong with it or replacing with a reputable engine...

A bit over it at the moment......

Hi Paul,

I have one complete with carby, exhaust manifold etc. It hasn't been run for a couple of years but was all good last time it drove. Pick up from West Gosford so not too far away from you. $200.00. You can contact me on 43248066 if interested.

Kind regards,
Steve
