Tohatsu 50hp Zapcat/Thundercat engine wanted

I'm looking for a replacement engine for my Zapcat.
I've searched eBay and the race group forums.
Just wondered if anyone has an engine to sell.
Must be a good runner.
It's going to be regularly used, but not raced.
I'm based SW England - Dorset.

Thanks in advance...
Milo

Hi mate,
I'll probably be selling my modified tohatsu 50 soon, once I get my 70 running.
It's been strengthened - welded crank, solid mounts etc. And some mods for more performance - 1mm off head, ported, carbon reeds, yam 70 carbs, ring gear removed, exhaust mod, nakuru coils...
It's a very powerful engine!
Not got a final price yet, still using it at the moment. Will spin an 18p cleaver to over 6500rpm, had 53.7 knots 2up with it.

Cheers,
Seumas
