RG150s arent eligible for buckets, so not many bucket people will have them.
They are pretty straight forward engines, if it is just a siezed piston should be an easy fix, if it ate the powervalves then not so straight forward as you will need to spend extra money, there is a possibility it may have done a big end or at least due for a rod kit as they dont last forever.

there are a few people up north who race them in streetstock, maybe somebody at the vic club can help.

if you just want somebody to fix it then pm Oyster on this forum, he has rebuilt dozens of them and has all the parts

Trust me there is so much that can go wrong with RG's that you probably couldn't afford to keep paying someone to fix it....

You will need to find out why its seized before you bother replacing the piston or it's like it may do it again....
