OK, I've got it. I'm pulling as much of a vacuum as I'm compressing. Roughly half the pressure of a fully swept cylinder is to be expected. See, I told you it was cobwebs on the brain. Thanks for all

To the best of my knowledge, the gearbox rear cover and bell housing were always painted the same color as the engine. The body, of course, was left natural aluminum. Regards, Lew --Original Message

I don't disagree, even after rereading Mike Allison's article, but why would my engine still be standard bore after a rebuild? Other work perhaps? My, you're up late. Lew PA1260 do BMC painted their

By the way, Tom, what paint do you use? I think Ford red and International Harvester red are too light. MGA/MGB (engine) red is too dark. Lew PA1260 do BMC painted their rebuilt engines green in the
