London Machine Shops - Chris Smith
Does anyone know a good machine shop in London? I need to have my Ford X Flow head skimmed and cylinder head crack tested to narrow down the possible causes of my whitesmoke saga (see previous thread)

Some interesting feedback thanks! I will keep you posted as to the result. A Caterham "enthusiast" list came back with one response that I needed to roughen the surfaces of the engine block and cylinder head more vigourously and suggested taking a "coarse file" to both! He had just replaced his engine though - probably as a result of excesive enthusiam/filing!

Thanks

Chris
