I have some parts for the above engines which are free to a good home. They are in Drummoyne, Sydney. My mobile number is 0412 080 107. First in best dressed. Cheers, Fred Cory |

I've rung Fred and organised pickup. Much appreciated as suprisingly its an engine I don't have - another restoration project. Great to see people try to see these engines preserved by other enthusiasts. Just give me a second - I've got to pinch myself. Fred - a big thankyou |

Funny how a website based in the USA can help two people in Australia find each other and help preserve a mechanical artifact! Who says the Internet has no useful purpose! |

Unbelievably, he's only a 10 minute drive from my place. |

I have a twin Blaxland in an antique clinker housed at the ALbert Park Yatching & Angling Club in Melbourne. We believe that it may be the biggest collection of such boats in AUstralia. I urgently need one cylinder as water is getting through the current cylinder. Can anyone help?.Rod Carter 0417058279 |

I may have something for you, I have a single 3.5 SXT the out side of the water jacket is beyond repair but the bore is fine, is that what's leaking, if so perhaps you can make 1 good one from the two. |

Jules, I did reply yesterday but it dosn't seem to be there. Thanks but I think the best thing is to get a sound cylinder. Appreciate it if anyone can help. Rod Carter |
