Hi,
=20
Is there a book out there on rebuilding BMC C-Series engines? Preferably, A=
H 3000 engines!
=20
The book would hopefully show one what to look for, options regarding perfo=
rmance parts and modifications that needed to be done by specialists. ie, I=
don=E2=80=99t want to get near the end of some rebuild process and then be=
told that part number xyz needs to go off to the lab to be machined to the=
nearest nanowotsit and have platinum inserts installed. If you see what I =
mean!
=20
Maybe something one stage up from =E2=80=9CEngines for Dummies=E2=80=9D=E2=
=80=A6=E2=80=A6..
=20
I have looked on Google and, so far, failed.
=20
Yes, I=E2=80=99ve got the manuals.

Thanks,
