Discovery block testing

Hi , I am trying to make a good engine , I have a complete engine from a Peugeot 407 that run perfectly , and I know the engine block is different . I have an engine block I have purchased seperately and I'm looking for a company that is able to check that the block is serviceable , i.e not warped as the crankshaft had broken , but the oil pump wasn't cracked . I need to find a company that can actually test the block before I strip the 407 engine , any ideas ?

I've had block work done by a couple of good builders - race engines but the process is the same and they have all the correct gear ready to go:

- EDA at Castleford 01977 516622 - ask for Kenny Coleman
- ICE at Siverstone 01327 858992 - ask for Nick or Rob. They worked on a 427 Big Block Ford for me including crack testing, line boring, honing, cross bolting, etc.
