I can supply some of the physical stuff that you would need..... however the only man in the country with the experience, knowledge and integrity to build you that engine from all the parts that you will need is Tim Williams in Coalville, Leicestershire.

He can do all your software too.

I can give you his contact details if you email me don@kalmar-union.com otherwise join up at www.t5d5.org and get him through that site.

Don.

There are other that can also carry out this work as you very well know Don, but I take it you have some sort of contractual agreement with Tim?

Default Others....?

Maybe you would like to specify those other companies or individuals in whom you would suggest to the OP that he puts his trust.......

Myself I have no such arrangements with Tim Williams that you allude to.

I take it you have never heard of Shem Green?
And you are well aware of 3 other companies within the UK that are capable of building an engine with the same reliability of Tim..

Default Shem Green.

I do know of Shem.... matter of fact I spoke to him only a while back.

You really are not helping the OP in his quest for information and contacts.... what about mentioning the other three?

Maybe I might learn something of true value that I do not presently know to pass on to others .....

How am I not helping the OP in his quest for information Don?

Your the one who is claiming that Tim is the only man in the country with the experience, knowledge and integrity to build an engine capable of producing 400bhp..

Are you saying that Shem is unable to build an engine to the same standard as Tim?

What about the same tuner that built Wobbly Dave's engine?

PS I have my own customers who have been emailing you for parts for well over 3 weeks now, could you be kind enough to respond to their emails..

Well... in the first place why not help the OP by referring him to these various alternative options rather than sniping at me and offering him some hint of the existence of alternative suppliers?

Then in answer to your assertion that several of your customers have contacted me recently and got no reply: I have no outstanding, unanswered emails beyond those received late last week.

Some may very well have been dumped in my junk and not been attended to, although I have to say I do check but may miss some.

Rather than allude to these poor souls why not get them to email a copy of their unanswered enquiries to me don@kalmar-union.com I will attend to them in the morning....go on and do them a favour.

Doing people a favour clearly is not your bag... rather have a pop at me eh! that's fine.

Don.

No Don I am not having a "pop" at you like you think. What I am doing though is correcting you in your constant belief the Tim Williams is the ONLY Volvo builder that can be trusted WHEN you know very well that there are others out there that the OP can choose from.

If you say you have answered all your emails then so be it..I shell recommend they go to PFS for their parts..

I bid you a good day..

PS You still haven't answered my question regarding Shem being able to make a 400bhp engine..

Out of interest who are these three other companies? that question still hasn't been answered and I'd quite like to know for future reference.
