Re: [Quantum Owners] Good Engine Reconditioners?

2014-10-29 Thread Susan and Martin Scott
The reconditioned units sold via the Ford Main Dealers were reconditioned by 
Wealdstone Engineering. A colleague of mine in Ford 12 years ago visited their 
factory regularly and rated Wealdstone's processes as better than the original 
build. It may be that they wouldn't recondition a one-off unit, and their 
processes would only deal with a volume run, but they may be worth contacting 
(If they merely recommended an alternative I'm sure that could be useful!)

  Hi all

  With nearly 200k on the clock (including 10 seasons of the RAF Sprinting 
Championship) it's time to get my engine reconditioned. (Well, after Curborough 
on Saturday anyway!)
  Initially I was looking at Specialised Engines for a stage 1 upgrade, but 
some reports on this forum were less than encouraging so I'm interested in 
where people have gone and any recommendations.
  I'm near Peterborough and will be transporting the engine in my trailer, so 
somewhere not too far away would be ideal.
  The current plan is to do this over Winter, I have a list of other jobs on 
the car anyway. It'll be the first time my 2+2 has been off the road for any 
length of time in over 21 years, so I guess it deserves a short break!

  Regards
  Dave English

Re: [Quantum Owners] Good Engine Reconditioners?

2014-10-29 Thread Chris
I had Specialised Engines in Essex rebuild my engine in May this year. 
Fantastic service and price was ok, if you’re in the owners club then you will 
get a discount on parts. It’s an old fashioned workshop with all the machinery 
needed and the knowhow about how to use it all properly, they do EVERYTHING 
inhouse. Apparently a few years ago another company set up near them with a 
similar name and did some REALLY bad rebuilds, which gave them a bad reputation.
I have no probs about using them againbut hopefully not for another 
10 years  
Look in the club mag for the logo.
