Post by: disco-v8 on March 12, 2008, 13:59:10

ok ive worked on the rover V8 for some years now, and no toads about them and where to get the cheapest stuff from....

but now im going to strip down a 300TDI engine and do a full rebuild of it...


basicaly im just trying to find out who sells the cheapest bits for stuff like main bearings, thrust bearings, valves, piston rings, gaskets, etc

it doesnt matter if one place is cheaper for 1 part and dearer on another, cuz ill most proerly order the parts in so wont mined ringing afew places

Surely you dont want cheap parts though? You want good quality parts that arent over priced (main stealers). Cheap parts always cost more in the long run.

The usually suspects are:

paddock spares
milner offroad (mainley jap stuff)
and partco.

as above, i`d also recommend paying a bit more for piece of mind.
