Great stuff!

Have you had the motor running yet with the replacement box?

Yes had it running once but had some issues which I put down to a blown gasket, I then completly stripped down the engine, and boxed it up with some other spares I had acquired and moved house just before xmas. Only just unboxed them today and resparked my interest!
