Thanks guys, I too served a Ford apprenticeship, on cars, but in 1970 I worked on a Ford Commercial parts counter for a year, so I knew what bits went into a D800 but never worked on them.
The reason that I asked the question originally is that I had looked at everything that I could find on the internet about the VAL and hoped to find that some had been retro fitted with other engines, especially that ours was badged as a Ford.
I collected the short engine in its Ford marked crate from a Ford dealer before it was driven to Italy, so I know that at least our VAL had a Ford 6 cylinder motor, but who fitted it? Is there a complete VAL listing anywhere.
When my company bought the coach, I went to collect it and drove it back from somewhere not too far from London, but, at this distance in time, I am afraid that I cant remember where.
Any more thoughts please.
Regards, Lloyd
