Unfortunately a quality core, thermostat, oil lines and fittings etc. are worth a few bucks and them some.

Pete has already priced up the key components and to be honest the money charged for the quality kits currently on the market, is not that outrageous.

However with some engineering knowhow and a few contacts in the industry I suspect Pete can fab up a kit that is top shelf, whilst retailing it at a price that will keep the Ebenezer Scrooges happy.
Cool. Keen to hear more - though there may be no point in Peter going through the exercise if his kits end up being more expensive that quality units already available (that are proven to fit/work with the N54 135/335 chassis). I haven't researched such kits yet...
