ukmudmaster:
I was told, if the valve seats had a lot of miles, they should be hard enough to take unleaded. I have run my 2, 1/4 petrol, unconverted on unleaded only for 2 years, and, so far so good. However,........ the decision is yours!!!!!
3 bearing lumps have a web around the bottom of the casting, 5 bearing lumps dont. Chances are, yours is a 5.

Also, the older( series) military engines were recond at 20 k, mines ex mod and its superb,

I ran my 5 bearing lightweight on unleaded for 3 years with out a problem.

timberdog:
cheers that helps anyway..i think i  may drop in soem Lead additive for what it costs..

timberdog:
well the rear crossmember is now on and welded up and the front outriggers new and welded up..

I have now fabricated a Top Rail and it aint perfect but better than a rottern Top rail just got to Drill the holes to take the bolts inside the cab and hey presto new Top rail...sounds easy ...not..

Then i am onto the Bodywork sanding down etc..and then take the hard Top off and swap for the Rag top and hoops of my 88" V6.

All in all i can see daylight a bit now as it was a right state when i got it 8)
