You must be pleased after the long wait. I took a Morris CS8 block to be decked and bored a few months ago, I made the mistake of telling the engine machinist "I'm not in a hurry" , I will be waiting til XMAS I think.

Interesting they helicoiled the stud threads, I think it's 12mm thread, the Morris head studs in the six cyl. CS8 are that size . 12mm threads come in three thread pitches, confusing ! metric fine is either 1.5 or 1.25 pitch.

That bracket made from flat bar , on the engine front where the pulley is on the 4 cyl. , I had one but didn't know it is a 4 cyl. part. I think I threw it out !
