I'm trying to remember I saw the most complete list; one I know of was 
an advertisement/spec sheet from Austin.  A lot of my Healey literatur 
is packed away, but I'll try to locate it.

Some of the original docs are mentioned here, but I don't know where to 
acquire copies:

          My understanding is that the 'kits' installed by dealers
          varied; the <br>
          complete one--the one done at the Healey shop--includes higher
          <br>
          compression pistons, a more aggressive cam, some suspension
          tweaks <br>
          (stiffer shocks, maybe a larger anti-sway bar), a different
          distributor <br>
          and, of course, the louvred bonnet.<br>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          Someone wrote up a list of mods that could be done--even
          better cam <br>
          profile, for example--that could be done to a 'stock' BN1/2 to
          achieve <br>
          performance superior to a M, while keeping the original
          'flavor' of the car.<br>
