Thanks John. Yes I have looked at that. At the moment no one seems to have any. Have been in touch with Toni Clark’s but 3 months wait, so thought I’d try an see if anyone has one that they don’t want! Long shot but worth a try.

John I’ve checked again with Toni Clark’s and they should have them in at the end of March. Am putting it in a P47 so she be Ok. I no what you mean about the size it’s slightly small than the Moki but after talking to people it’s the better engine. I have two other Valach engines both good.

If Toni Clark are getting stock in March I assume Bernie will be getting stock at the same time. Buying from him will save you all the agro of customs and all other post Brexit issues.
We really should be supporting UK businesses now !?

Yes I take what you’re saying on board. I will give Bernie a call . Sure if he can get close to the Toni Clark price without me having to deal with our customs issues I will be more than happy to buy from him. Thanks for the info.

For your information, guys.
Fiala props, who is the actual manuacturer of the Valach engines, are expanding their production facilities and during this period have some less production capacity.

Also note that Fighteraces is a dealer of Valach engines: https://www.fighteraces.co.uk/shop/engine/vm-r5-250/

I see you are sorted but:

Are these Tomahawk radial engines worth considering? I've been looking at these for a while.
