Had the cylinder head reconditioned by the local engine reconditioner who did his apprenticship on the B60 & B40 motors which helped no end.
Thanks to Russell Altman who supplied a NOS carby, Fuel pump and what you cannot see are all of the original gaskets including head gasket. Clutch plate religned and flywheel machined along with the transmission being serviced. Manufactured the mobile engine stand myself and it has proved to be a valuable piece of kit with a power unit of this size. A few parts from Roy Elvis in the UK a coat of paint and the job is done.
As time goes on and i master getting photos onto the site i will share more if people wish.
Cheers,
Dave.

Hi Dave have mistaken your Humber for Richards I have recently purchased a Humber 1 ton and love your information what a great job. There are so many questions I would like to ask, here are some.
Do you have the paint code for that two pack finish you got.?
Is there any new or NOS wiring looms available.
Will send a picture when I learnhow to do it on this site.
