WTB means "Want To Buy"

Here is the best place I know of to get a new ST head and he is not too far south of you.

AND Tom is a great guy to work with.  Very supportive after the sale!!!
I have purchased from him, and would highly recommend you do the same.
He also keeps lots of spare parts in stock (brushes, bearings etc.)

Thanks everyone, I'll be giving him a call soon.  Now I just need to get my other Lister engine sold.

You shouldn't sell ANY Lister diesel, I'm tellin ya you'll regret it. Dead reliable and able to extract energy from a variety of fuels is just what the EPA does not want people to own. Every engine regardless of model or configuration is a valuable commodity these days and becoming more so with the passage of time.

It's a later model air cooled fixed rpm unit.  It's from a military APU used on the M1A1 tanks.  I'd keep it around but it's just taking up space now.  It's very overbuilt I can say that!  If there's some cheap means of controlling the RPM, I would keep it.
