Hi Hanno,

That's very thoughtful of you to send that helpful link ! Thank you !

I will endeavour to detail the conversion if it goes ahead ... I am viewing the French engine in a fortnight and will know more about it from then on.

kind regards,

Mark

As per John's link, go to post#1110 and start there (Tony Baker's Blitz restoration) one of the biggest threads on this forum. He covers things well.

The vehicle in THIS LINK might provide more pic info if the seller uploads more engine photos.
