Need advice with my Sprints engine, how to sort it etc.

For everything to do with Dolomites, Toledos, FWD cars and Dolomite-based kitcars.

I have recent info that mr Nicholas is breaking a Sprint. If it has a good engine that you can hear running I'd buy it and then strip yours down.

Alternatively you could put a TR7 8valve engine in it for a few months while you do the same...and thay are dirt cheap...
Fifty quid will get you a runner on ebay...

Okay you loose a few horses but at least it keeps you mobile...

Note from Admin: sadly Jon passed away in February 2018 but his humour and wealth of knowledge will be fondly remembered by all. RIP Jonners.
