Wolseley 8?

So, whatever it is (I've never actually seen a W8), it has done away with the original valvetrain etc and has the valves above the pistons.

Bearing in mind where you are, Mazengarb?


I'll trade it for 2 dozen rocking horse doodahs. :D

I would agree that it is a Mazengarb from the photos on the website. I assume that the oil filler pipe is attached to the tappet chest cover and the distributor has an extra long jack shaft.

Agreed that it does look like a Mazengarb head.
