Overdue update!

[Craig W]

Howdo friends. An apology is owed for my absence since joining the forum! My biggest issue is my restricted availablity of time, combined with accessing the forum Via my phone. The screen is less than forgiving compared with using the laptop at home. That said, all is well, business is steady & my project has certainly commenced. Whilst like many others we await the current global shipping madness to sort itself out, I've purchased a flathead Engine here in the UK to build ready for my MK.I* arrival at some point in the New year? As it turned out it was a golden find. Not only was it in remarkable condition, but on checking the engine number beneath the thick paint, we discovered to our amazement it was indeed out of a Carrier & manufactured around November '43.

I've made an electrolysis cleaning tank at work & to date I've had some amazing results. After only x2 cycles the block now looks like new & absolutely no corrosion remains (especially within the water jackets) Progress is ongoing but I'm delighted with the early results. Please forgive my relative silence from time to time. I'll attempt to upload more photos as I go. Regards to you all.
