How To: Restore a Morris or keep fit

[T Creighton]

Hi Mike,
My engine is away, with a newly ground crank, at one of the few firms that can do new white metal mains and big ends so I won't have to worry about new studs until it gets back to the re-conditioner who is doing the job. I would prefer rolled threads and high tensile steel. It looks like some helicoil inserts will be needed as well.
The block has hard exhaust valve seats that look in good enough condition, although they have a huge selection of new inserts, and they will make new guides which will be cheaper than new ones from Cox and Turner.
I have already bought new liners, pistons and a full set of valves.
The dollars are mounting up not to mention the time all this takes.
Terry.
