Default Morris and metric

Dave

A possible trap to be aware of is: Morris used metric threads on their engines , your CS8 engine has metric threads all over it. William Morris had an arrangement with Hotchkiss of France for engine manufacture back prior to WW1 I think so it goes , Morris eventually bought out a Hotchkiss factory that was setup in the UK making armaments during WW1 thus he inherited metric tooling
