Were you ever able to find that “Header Porn” I sent you a pic of?Thanks Alwyn! Hopefully, when all is said and done, someone will be able to say this new project is a "beautiful bit of engineering." Understandably, it will not be to everyone's liking! I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of folks that think what I'm doing is sacrilege. But, in my defense Donald and Geoff Healey were innovators. Donald always drove a modified Healey and Goeff was always tinkering with how to improve the breed. I suspect, they more than most, would approve efforts from technical innovation (or updating if you wish). At any rate, I have saved all the original parts so if at some point someone wants to make it stock again they can.... it won't be me.
Say, "Hi" to your friend for me! His car is very much alive in this one.
Here are a few images of the current status of the engine build.
Cheers,
Steve
