Jim

The engine number on the V5 is LUVGL89061.

Jim if we are not getting any discount do not worry just put a list
together and get them to price the components we require.

I think I have a spare metal air filter housing in my garage so will check
out.

The choke cable is now with the car awaiting fitment.

I have a spare cam cover.

Do you want to sandblast all the components or will they have to go away to
be done and painted?

Many thanks for your assistance.

Regards
Andy h.
