He was able to cut the block in half, but left the head complete for balance. just mounted it with 4 risers off the rocker cover. I installed the pistons, rods and crank and epoxyed the rod back through the hole and the pistons in place, with a few supporting spanners jb welded in.....

Then I left for wonderful NZ, where a land rover defender costs 90K+

Sold it for 100 GBP to a mate.

Pics?
