Thanks bobtail, we're stripping it down sunday, so if we need it I'll get Sarah to get intouch with him. it's her "Doug" that we blew up  :cry:

Just thought i,d add my two penneth worth, I did exactly the same thing at driffield two yrs ago and it did indeed bend a conrod but it was more obvious as it did n,t run well at low rpm and white smoked all the time but above 50 mph it sounded ok and no smoke as the compression gets better as the engine speed increases, it did get us home all the way to glossop in derbys with a caravan on the back though. Stripped it down and replaced one conrod and piston and she was ok again.
Hope that helps. :)

We got a new\old engine and got it mostly fitted last weekend. Just got to finish the plumbing this weekend, and might as well do the timing belt, while it's easy to get to.
