Rover V8 ARK Racing starter and flywheel

I`m looking for an ARK Racing starter and flywheel for a Rover V8 single seater installation.
From memory ARK recommend starter/flywheel as a pair.
If anyone has such a thing lurking about I would be pleased to hear from you.
Cheers Roger

When I was trying to fit the M5 engine into my car I needed an offset starter and a small flywheel.
ARK pricing terrified me.
I spoke to Tim Brise (01322 313761) to see what off the shelf offset starters they could supply.
They had a stock of one they supply for some cars that Palmer runs - £600.
I worked out that it had sufficient offset to get a small enough flywheel onto my engine, and could be fitted to the block with a small adaptor plate.
I then required an 11" flywheel with BMW crank bolthole spacing, drilled for my Superclutch clutch, and with teeth cut to suit the pitch of the off the shelf starter.
The man for that is Alan Crisp at 20/20 Vision in Colchester (01473 312266). Not the fastest, but beautiful steel flywheel to suit the above mishmash of components, which fitted perfectly for under £300.

Many thanks for your replies gentlemen, I contacted Nick Beere and he suggested contacting John Eales, now all sorted.
Regards Roger.
