You might be lucky but my personal view is that the risk of failure having committed a lot of time and effort is that it is just not worth it. There appears to be a variation in the quality of the c

I would have said that your distributor does not have an advance curve that quite matches the original Lucas. I am concentrating on the mechanical advance so any checks need to made with the vacuum

I have to accept what Perry has said because he clearly has the experience but I was going on original BMC gasket sets or Payen sets produced when the cars were young. Fortunately I have not so far

I fully agree with Alan and will also add that if anything significant is skimmed from the top of the block then you need to check the clearances of the pistons when at Top Dead Centre. With a standa

There is another thing to be careful of. The threads on your thumb screws might be BSF or UNF. It depends on the age of the car and if these are original or after market items. I had this problem but

Not from the impeller but it is the seal that is lifted off the casting against the spring pressure. I think that you will find that very few British cars in the early 1950s had pressurised cooling
