You are right on the money. I’m going to keep it as original as possible. No unnecessary updates or changes.
It’s much better than I expected. Turns over easily by hand, the crank is .010/.010, but it’s at the upper wear limit on the second and third mains. I haven’t pulled the head, but everything under the valve covers looks good. I’m not doing much with the 6 right now as I have just acquired a fresh 8BA for this project. But my long term plan is to put into the roadster pickup.
