| Have to say I am over the moon with my Hawkeye forged engine build by Andy Kindon. Did it for me over Xmas and I have done 1300 miles and hasn't missed a beat so far. I have been giving it plenty of boost and taking her to 5000rpm the last 100 miles or so and it feels brand new. He did Tizer's Hawkeye WRX as well over the same period - must be the Jean-Michel Jarre of engine builders doing 2 at once!  |

As Marietto states Dr Kindon done my forged build and so far so good at 600 miles, feels sweet as a nut to be honest. | |

Nowhere near that bud - my forged build was even less than that and I had the full top of the range pistons, rods, etc |

Full works mate, ARP head studs, uprated head gaskets, seals, cam covers, ACL Race bearings - the pics are in the photos section as I posted them up there if you would like to have a look - aren't you a mechanic yourself StickT - don't you know what is involved? |
