I've recently acquired a Jensen-Healey with a very smokey Lotus 907 engine in it. Seems to run fine but for that problem (and a bad miss when cold, due to oil fouled plugs). The exhaust pipe is full of soot and hard acceleration leaves a cloud worthy of James Bond making a getaway....
I also got a later engine from an Elite. I plan on stripping it down, rebuilding it over the next couple months and then give the J-H a big Christmas present. I'd planned on not doing the engine til next Fall, but it smokes so, so badly that I don't think it will pass inspection due next April and be allowed on the roads.
The Jensen-Healey Preservation Society has what I think is a pretty good overview of rebuilding these engines and some of the go-faster improvements, but...
What books or printed sources are there for rebuilding these engines?
What are the best or useful public or free sites with useful information?
TIA
