geoffreywh Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 Doing a job for a nice guy. Oil leaks cause me to remove the heads and barrels. After a clean up I find one barrel worn out and way over size tolerance. The others are OK, pistons good too, Ring gaps about 3mm!...So I need one good cylinder, worse is the fact that two heads have detonation damage. It looks as though the seats could fall out. So has anybody got a cylinder and a couple of heads for a solid lifter engine?....Got to be within wear limits. 3/8" thru' bolts. Anybody? Have a look at the pics and what do you think? Maybe I'm overthinking the heads.
Yenn Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 your diagnosis looks correct to me. Probably been run on mogas at some time, which can vary from garage to garage. Can't help with spares, Sorry.
