I'm not a concours winner--my car is a grizzled road warrior--but
some things stand out:<br>
<br>

manifold paint largely burns off)<br>

and then front carb to engine ..." (what's a mesh?), but the only
fuel filters on a BJ8 are the little, thimble-shaped fine screens on

I've never seen adel clamps on a Healey that weren't
owner-installed. I bought my car at 64K miles, and it just had the
ubiquitous metal P-clip on the front choke cable bracket (might have
a rubber liner, though)<br>
<br>
Bumble bee ignition secondaries were only used on competition cars.
#1&#2 and #5&#6 wires had O-rings to group the wires. Never
seen that type of plug cap--with 'Champion'--on a stock car<br>
<br>
Servo vacuum line looks to have an inline check valve; original
Girling servos had one on the servo body only (new ones not

Thank you for the quick response, Michael. I have a number of
