Crippy Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Hi Just wondering if there is somewhere on the forum where a person could find out contact details for the person/group nearest to them based on vehicle types. For example I am looking for someone who has a Dodge WC or an engine from one near to my postcode LE16 so I can make contact to try and get some measurements. I tried a thread but have not had much joy and I do not know how to navigate this forum too well just yet. there may be some group listed within the forum its just I don't know how to find it. Your thoughts Gents Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that too far away ? Kind regards Vulture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crippy Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hi Vulture Well it is something he could do for me without me having to go over but if he was unable to do it I could try and get sometime to suit him. I need just a few measurements and approximate ones at that. A. Fan to the back to end of block B. Fan to the back end of the gearbox C. Width of the engine block. D. Height from base of sump to top of engine E. Height from base of sump to top of air filter. If he could get me those it would be great as I have my eyes on a 72 6cyl Mercedes engine and box with less than 75k and I wouldn't want to buy it if it would be too big. Thanks in advance Regards Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crippy Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 Thanks for that and I have made contact with a John Denny from South Midlands so we can see where that gets me.Again thanks for taking the time and effort.Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Dodge is currently immobile in its lair, so getting the measurements taken is not feasible at the moment. Hope John Denny can help.
