I would have been interested if I knew for sure that the gearbox would bolt onto an 11e motor. The engine its self would not suit my needs as its not fan blown. Thanks for flaging it up though Dickie.

Well,  if it were a fan blown engine the Kwacker motor would have been perfect allbeit a little underpowered! :D :D

there must be a villiers man that could tell us if an Albion ( for that is what villiers used ) 4 speed box will attach to an 11E
