Proof that the engine is going in. I manage to drop the engine in on Friday night, then Sat afternoon finished fixing all the rel event parts to the engine. Did a trial start of it and it worked, before putting all the body panels back on.
Only one problem is it leeks water through some of the studs, now allowing it to sit to allow the water and metal to react a bit before putting in the rad weld. Took the car for a wee run and the only adjustment was to the dissy to far advanced.
I made a few mods to this one, as follows
Flattened cam followers
Large inlet valves ' n' double springs
Over bored Oil pump
Over sized oil jets
+60 solid skirt pistons
Standard cam
New timing gears matched
Gassed flowed block and ports
New Bosh Dissy
Mod to the cam locating nut
No paper gaskets, except sump and nose cone
