Morris C8 Crankshaft specs.

Thanks for that link Richard. Most helpful.

It is a pity the Morris book did not have all those engine particulars. Then it would be so easy to compare.
Some of those Nuffield numbers look familiar though.
I have looked at "Sparex" Nuffield pistons but they do not seem to be flat tops like the Morris truck.
I will go and do some measuring.

Kind regards, Terry

Hi Terry,
If the Sparex pistons are concave on top, then they are low compression ones for the Vapourising oil Nuffield.

With that link I sent, there are more, if you want to see more on the Morris engine, substitute the 1 in the web address, for 2, and 3.

I cannot understand why the crank details are not in that C8 book, all similar army manuals for Austin, Bedford, etc. include this.

regards, Richard
