Guest Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Maffett cruisers at loddon are the boys for reconditioned they done my engine 8 years ago and still no problems if you have got a 4108 its better to stick with them they will out last any nanni also you would problerly have to alter the engine beds and prop if you changed the engine. maffett's nunber: 01508 520344 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 "they will out last any nanni" I would love to know how you are going to prove this assumption? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newf Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 Thanks for all the input guys and heaven forbid I have started ww4 but I shall investigate all avenues as suggested. Always nice to have a recommendation to start off with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilB Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 C.Ricko would be a good person to comment on Nannis, personally I think they are good as they have been in use on hire fleets since the late eighties. He would be a good person to talk about rebuilding Perkins as well. I'm afraid i'm not a fan of 4107/4108's but I used to love the BMC's as they were fairly bulletproof. Of course, non of them are as good as a Volvo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
