Default Parts

I think the 4 cyl. engine parts are still available from the UK . The Land Rover engine restorers, can't think of their name ( COX and Turner ? ) , they have a huge stock of old engine parts . I bought new valves for the Morris OH engine from them . Might be a ideal chance while the UK pound is low.

The chap from Norway bought a container load of NOS Morris parts, ex Norwegian army stock . What became of him and the parts ?

Hi Mike,
Cox and Turner are excellent for vintage engine spares.

I think the Morris parts in Norway are now with someone in England.

Default new question on c8 engine

Is this space between the engine block and the flywheel housing supposed to have a cover to stop the muck etc going into the components inside? I have looked in the manual and nothing is there, this does not seem right. Can anyone help

Default space for ***t

Hi Paul,
There is a piece of angle about 1.5''x1.5'' that bolts to the flywheel housing with the two holes you can see and covers the gap.
