Affordable upgrade for Ford Watermota on Freeman 22 Cruiser ?

HI All

Suggestions ver welcome for an affordable swap for the Ford Anglia pre-crossflow Watermota in the Freeman Cruiser.

The engine's been left in bits and does not look worth investing in, and besides a change to a diesel would be safer from a fire point of view.

That said, would a Ford diesel be best, if it would naturally mate to the gearbox ?

Thoughts welcome.

Regards JM

I suggest you keep and eye out in the normal places and ebay etc as good old BMC 1.5/1.8 units come up quite often and oft with gearbox. Whatever you buy some fabrication will be required but the old BMC is a good solid well tested unit at an affordable price.
