Have gathered enough Holbay parts to convert a good standard engine into a Holbay lookalike engine..... all that's needed is a Holbay rocker cover and a pair of Weber 40's to complete.
The kit comprises......
Holbay cylinder head complete with valves and springs.
Inlet manifold
Exhaust manifold (4 branch)
Holbay type distributor (no vacuum)
Holbay camshaft
4 x Flat top pistons (standard size).
Will put it all on fleabay if no one on here is looking right now, but thought I'd offer it to you guys first. Is all stuff I've gathered over the time since I bought the project car but I've got all the Holbay parts I need for the car and this stuff is surplus to requirements. On price I'm open to reasonable offers but to give you an idea it cost me over £300 when you take into account the cost of collection/delivery charges.
Anyone out there with a good condition standard block could end up with an excellent engine for relatively little money compared to the rubbish they are selling on ebay that's been lying in someone's garden shed for the past 20 years. Is all in good condition although the exhaust manifold looks as though it has been repaired but the rest of it looks good.

Anyway.... I'll offer it all as individual items with the exception of the head (sorry Jason) I've decided to hang on to it just in case disaster strikes me  and I blow the one I've got. They do come up on ebay from time to time but I really went out of my way to make sure this one was a good one.
Other thing I need to mention is that the exhaust manifold is missing it's flange to connect to the system. Looks as though someone sawed it off in order to remove it. Easy MIG repair but needs to be said.
Andrew (re: your enquiry).... I have emailed you but your email keeps bouncing back.

Just a note to say that I'd rather sell it all in the one package but will split it up if no one wants to buy it all.
