New ALTA head castings

Post by RobThomas »

Like wot it says.

If there was enough interest, it might be possible now to cast new heads, utilising modern valves, springs and rockers etc. A foundry has agreed to try if there is enough interest.

At the moment it is just at the planning stage so I'd welcome any input from anyone with regards to suitable alternative component sources, especially rockers ans the method of getting valve lift from the Morris tappets to the valve heads.
