Wanted to change to a 4-bolt cylinderhead for years but it looks as we are finally getting there ...
Cylinderhead (ex F2) completely rebuild with 33.7 mm inlet and 29.1 mm exhaust valves, hardened seats, new guides, new double valve springs, new tappets etc.
Also have a rebuild camcarrier now with L1 inlet and L14 exhaust cams, one off locating dowels and a proper old type camcover.
Still need to do some small things like fit exhaust studs, shorten carb-studs and fit these, change linkage of one carb, fit shorter rampipes, fit the 2 pins in the camcover that locate the oilfillercap.

Wet sump, it is for a road car (rpm not over 8000 ...)
