Where do I find a valve block ?

[olbod]

G'day.

I want to get a second hand Valve block For the Bro's 1998 P38a HSE.
Dont want to touch the one in it at the moment. I have a feeling that this is where all of our trouble lies.
With another unit I could take my time and fit a rebuild kit and then put it in the Thingy.
Got know idea what a second hand unit would be worth or where to get one.
Anyone have any idear's ?

Ta.

PS: I am assuming that this would be cheaper than buying a new or rebuilt
one from a shop ?

There is one on ebay at the moment.

Thanks, I kept getting outbid on the local one so I have purchased one from the USA and it will be here in about 3 weeks.

I will get two O Ring repair kits and when I fix and fit the new one I shall rebuild the existing thingy so that we have a rebuilt spare.

Just don't get the cheap O ring kits.
I speak from experience.......

Oh, okay.
Do local blokes like Mr Automotive and others sell them ?

What about the ones from British parts ?

Ta.

PS: to the above.
Sorry, those kits from Ebay not British parts. Doh.

Those kits on ebay are actually pretty good.
They are the ones I ended up getting.
The cheap ones I was referring too were from an actual british supplier, similar to Rimmer Bros, but not them.
So, yeah, go for those ebay ones, never had an issue, so far........
They been sealing fine for nearly three years now.
Me thinks the local boys would be able to get them if they didn't have them, but you'd get them cheaper through ebay or
direct from one of the (more reputable) British mobs.
