I am looking for a Silver century block. I am in Greece so postage needed. It's not the first time I buy a block from UK, postage cost around 35GBP and I am ready to pay for that. Parcelforce is the most reasonable. The engine I want to restore is a ESCL 51H7.
Please let me know if there is any.

Is this a silver century block or a 40 one? It is not as the blocks I have.

A Silver Century block is an Amal one.

The block that Nianders sent details is for a CPC which is a Century 100 not a Silver Century! it will only take a Villiers carb on the other side to normal,
If I remember right the carb on an ESPC is an Amal 416 or on a very early one an Amal twin jet.
Try not to feed the poor bloke who only wants a Silver Century cylinder, too much rubbish, instead of getting the truth, that Silver Century cylinders are very hard to find in good condition, but are available new for £158 ish from John.
