G'day Curt

You have certainly given me a good idea about the engine trolley. I am
about to start on the Riley engine of the Healey Saloon and because of
it's design doesn't fit a normal engine rotisserie.

Many thanks.

For those of you who are interested, I will begin putting my new engine
in my
BN2 this afternoon.  I have posted some pictures of it taken before I
begin installation.

If anyone wants to take a look (and offer criticism) you can see them at
http://www.mnhealey.com/curt/frameset.htm.

The engine has slightly higher compression, a hotter cam I designed
myself, a large self-designed carburator heat shield, and a 12V Positive
Ground alternator among other mods.

It has been test run on the stand for about an hour so far with good oil
pressure and a regular heartbeat.
