Gergo,
Another point...in addition to Peter's excellent research into cars close to
yours, your engine, being a newly introduced 6 port engine should be painted
in the dark Morris Green paint. The National Concours Committee has been
conducting extensive research on these cars, and this is one of the many
significant details we've been able to confirm. It seems these engines were
painted his way from the time they began installing the new 6 port engines
at Abingdon from late October '57 until about April of '58 when BN4
production paused for a few months while the new 2 seater BN6 came on line.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the info. It looks like I should try to find a 6 port 2.6 then to
replace my early 3000 which came with the car.
Greetings:
Gergo
