Oily Spanner has an engine locally and i guess between us we could probably go get it and put it in all in one day

Ah! right.. as long as you have a backup plan. I was slightly concerned that you were going to find some serious damage to yours, and then be without an engine.
I have to find out if I am needed either day this weekend (for prop-swing-starting a 1930's Tiger Moth. It's fantastic fun!) and once I know, I'll let you know if I can make it. It's about 230 miles and 4 hours, but I may be due in the Wolverhampton area on monday anyway... we'll see.

Now THAT sounds fun - to my addled brain the Tiger Moth has always seemed like the 2CV of the aviation world - lightweight, very basic but tremendous fun (well, my father said it was fun learning to fly in one).
