Been slow going with my et project 

Couple of reasons  for this include 

A:Buying online without seeing first hand what you actually getting 

B: finding out that not everyone is as honest as yerself 

Never mind 

 I've two motors  .a 1260 with fucked engine mounts and a 1100 that needs cylinder head gasket and probably a top end refresh 

Does anyone know a reputable engine builders that would build up the 1260 into the good 1100 cases 

Handy if was in scotland due to my location

When you say 'fucked engine mounts' what do you mean exactly? There are several engine mounts on a GSX engine and if your 1260 motor is otherwise OK, taking it to someone who knows what they're doing crankcase repair wise is going to be a whole lot cheaper than a professional engine rebuild.

The front n/s has been repaired before at some time and it's not held and has a secondary cracknow

I want to build the internals from this motor in to the standard et motor 

Then I can see if its possible to plug and re drill the front mount

Highly recommend Chris Tombleson at grumpy 1260 . Built my efe from a box of bits and it flies.  Bit of a way from Scotland though!
