Default Engine parts needed.......

......gents,

I have been onto my suppliers today in my quest for finding gaskets for a top end on a V8 and front cover etc.

Unfortunately they claim many gaskets are NLA or B/O

Any ideas on who has stock of rocker / head / manifold gaskets etc etc.

Mr Lates,
This seller may be able to help:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MG-260-ZT-...item43a9834066
Contact is Mark.

Alternatively find someone who deals in Mustang engines/parts.

If all else fails and you can supply me with part numbers for the mustang unit I have family living in San Francisco so could possibly get them from the local ford dealer over there.
Cheers Ian

Thanks all, will speak to Dreadnought in the morning before exploring the 'Bay and other avenues.

ps the engineer who says the job can be done in book time needs his head testing

Have to agree. I normally use Rockauto.
Even with the shipping almost always cheaper than UK sources.

Rockauto also has a GB tax registration so what you see is what you pay.
No additional tax and/or duties.
