VICKERS MK6B's resto

[colin jones]

Hi Dave, thanks for the offer but I am pretty sure the B60/80 engines have different pistons but as luck is partly on my side I will possibly be able to use 4 of my 6 pistons and just get new liners. I have just put the block in my press and got the last two out and one liner came out with it with relative ease. It is no biggy to get two new pistons made of the same size so I will do that as the last two have very bad pitting on the top and I don't think you could weld them and expect it to hold up to the heat and pressure they are subject to. All in all I am glad to have my engine back and also to be doing it myself.
