Re: another engine identification

many thanks Phil, that´s what i was looking for would a 12G295 be an option? It´s because i got one stored. It has a bit bigger inlet valve and 2.2 cc more chamber volume. We discussed about this head to be mounted to a 948 with shimming. https://www.mmoc.org.uk/Messageboard/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=...

Re: Help with Brake Master Cylinder (rear bolt)

what to do..... as far as i know.... take care when working on brake system check that the old (installed) filler plug fits to the new master cylinder. In your case, It should be one without a hole.

the impedance of a speaker is a measure of the current provided by the amplifier of the radio. So safe way is using a speaker with the specified impedance. Using speakers with higher impedance, will lower the current provided by the amplifier and will cause no damage. Using a speaker with a lower im...

Re: clutch pressure plate

Thanks Phil for your tip.
I was lucky and could buy a used Austin pulley at a good price...., i was told to remove the dumper, and then it should fit.
hope that once this problem is solved, I can drive again

Re: Back windows

all non split screen Saloons (56 onwards) should have the same rear window. I would guess they simply reversed the screen rubber if it really does not fit. How did you realize that it does not fit?

Re: What did Morris get wrong originally?

i got something they did right first. It is the access to the bake adjuster, witch was easy without removing the tire because there was a hole in the rim. No idea why they removed this hole in later rims
