Dave, can it be mounted on a BJ8 with the everything in place?

For the record, I am pretty sure it is my motor that Mike is working on. =
I
have a Heritage Certificate which gives the build date as 29 Sept to 6
October, 1959. Dispatch date was 13 October. That was for the car, and
they may have had motors built up and waiting for installation, but it ties
it down fairly closely.
Cheers, Mirek

Completely agree. See my comment which was posted before I read Hank's mail=
.
It really would be interesting to have dates for the engines, but engine
stamps don't necessarily reflect build order.
