3.9 relined?

Post by chuggernought »

hi folks, just rebuilt an interim 3.9 rv8 and fitted it to my disco, i have another interim 3.9 to rebuild for my 100" hybrid off roader, BUT found the old engine ive just taken out of the disco is a cross bolt block.
one reason it came out was the poor state of 2 of the bores and i suspect possibly the old cracked block syndrome. baring in mind im on a budget what can i expect to pay to have the block relinered and does anyone know anywhere close to derby that can do this work? rather use the crossbolt is possible.

I think it's about £800.
