Spotted the engine previously, surprised there seems to be so few bids on it, interesting to see what it goes for

Remember NK going on about the advantage of the shortened manifold,(mind you he said a lot about nothing in that little book) but I never got my hands on one back then, anyway I was on the look out for a new inlet, so we'll chuffed.

norrie had a policy of never telling anyone anything for free if he thought he could sell them the info or parts and then only if it did not challenge or threaten his business.
always a good tuner and a shrewd business man, i never warmed to him though he was always polite

Well didn't get it in the end, bit weird really, but I notified the seller that I hadn't received the manifold, he emailed proof that he had posted it via Royal Mail. I went to my local Royal Mail depot who told me that the reference number wasn't one they use (didn't end in G.B.) I notified the seller about this and he refunded my money without further explanation, case closed. All seems a bit strange.
