SNAP! I got some car stuff done too, finally lifted the engine out the P5 & dismantled it, apart from the knackered camshaft it seems in generally good health. Just need to pluck up the courage to spend some money on bits now

Putting it back together standard Col or are you going to liven it up a bit?

Pretty much standard, I did toy with a mildly warmed up cam but the costs get away on you if you’re not careful. Everything’s going to be as Rover intended apart from a pair of efi heads for the bigger valves & better porting

Would be nice, but that little old BW 35 would expire in a cloud of cogs & springs

Cool

Good morning Colin and fellow followers from Sunny Saltash.

A bit cooler this morning but at least the sun is out.

Going to see if I can figure out why Banana won’t start.
