    Slipped Liner 4.6 HSE

    I have recently aquired a 1997 4.6HSE which has the dreaded slipped liner. The vehicle is in good condition in all other respects and is also converted to LPG. I am looking at getting the block resleved and have found one such company which has done rover v8s in Perth, they have quoted about $1600 to reline the block with standard liners. Does anyone have any ideas on what relining should cost or any suggestions of anyone in Perth who can also reline the rover v8s?

    Your price sounds OK ... and I do know of some "good ol boys" in Tate street Bentley
    You need to also get your block crack tested ...

    You have to make sure they fix/weld the crack that causes the liner to slip.
    In most cases a crack in the block casting behind the liner is to blame.

    He's a very switched on guy, even more so when you look at his background.

    Thanks to all for the info.
    The people we were talking to say they haven't had a liner come loose after the re-sleeving (by the way they are in Tate St). I would still prefer to use Top hat liners though after reading through the info provided. The company did say they can do the top hat liners but the liners have to be ordered from the UK.

    The 4.6 short motor listed from SA does look tempting though, but understandably its a fair amount more than I payed for the car
