Hi there,
Before you had the asbestos removed from the engine bay, did you have it tested to confirm it was asbestos?
Was it just the engine bay heat shield that you had it removed?
I have found a maintenance pdf file online, that is heavily filled with warnings, they only talk about asbestos in two places, the exhaust and the brake bands. No mention of it when removing all engine covers to remove the engine. This could possibly be because it’s referring to updated fv432s that have had it all removed sometime in their lives. https://www.fv432apc.com/manuals/fv432manuals/2350T251/2350-T-251-522.pdf
Page 29 and 71 of the pdf file.
I am looking at purchasing one, but I dont like the thought of having it parked in my shed where I will be working on it, if it has a bunch of asbestos matting throughout the engine bay.
Cheers
