Very sad news.
Spent many hours talking about porting gas flows and valve to piston shadows.
Will miss him, one of the old school.

Yes,very sad news.
Bought many parts from him over the years and chatted to him many times on the phone.
He even worked at DK Eng for a 'very' brief period 20 odd years ago.
First time I actually met him was at Phils last year.
Will be sadly missed in the car community.
I met him at Phil’s last year, he asked me if my twincam was a real one (ie one his engines) yes it is I replied. He then enquired if I would take Gloria for a drive in my car which I did.
Never met him, but chatted to him on the 'phone about the Beta Volumex engine.
He was very helpful, a lovely man.
A great loss.![]()
That is really sad news , what a loss to everyone, a top bloke. I also had the pleasure of meeting him at Phil's, Guys enthusiasm and love for the Lampredi was super obvious to say the least
It was a real treat to follow one of his recent builds in September on our Beta day, what an engine!!!
I will treat my Lampredi with due respect on my 'commute' tomorrow.
Guy built my 8V engine. He helped me with so much of the set up. Visits to Guy's workshop were always a pleasure. It was good to have known him.
I also had quite a lot of dealings with Guy, but only through faxes and email. He helped me a lot with engine tuning over the years with advice and supply of parts, for a number of twin cam cars. I've got his books and DVD's. He was very talented, a real loss to the community.
