  Darren will be delivering it in a couple of weeks.

  It is a stock DMC engine, but a mish-mash of reconditioned and new 
  parts. The block, sandwich plate, sump and crank are coming from the 
  engine that was in the car when I got it. Basically all the parts that 
  wear are being replacesd. The crank is the one exception and that shows 
  negligible wear (was tested professionally and still comes within 
  manufacturer's specificatinos). All internals have been replaced. Many 
  of the bits came from a brand new crate Volvo engine that I picked up 
  from Chris Parnham for £350. Several items such as valves came from 
  Darryl or eBay. Yet more items such as water pump and timing chains came

  from Renault, and items like chain sliders came from Volvo.Sprockets, 
  conrod bolts, dipstick and other stuff came from DMCH

  As you know, Darren Bowker is a "professional hobbyist" when it comes to

  building engines. I will be sure to post photos when I get the lump. It 
  will be a benchmark for any concours competitor, that's for damn sure.

  Except the fuel lines, which I'm having made and will look slightly 
  different
