That was me. I bought Dunlop wheels from MWS in the UK about 20 years ago... and suffered through a ton of broken spokes (one wheel of 72 spokes had over 25 broken spokes at one point) until I had th

There are no problems with the drums per se. The BN1 is very sensitive to how you bleed the system. If you don't do it right, it will continue to have air in the system. The only way to do it is to

The bad rotors are the cheapo ones with no counterweight. If you have one with a counterweight, it's probably a good one. Note that www.cape-international.com sells original style lucas-copy rotors.

If you are using multi-weight oil (i.e. 20W-50) in your dashpots, this can cause the problem you describe, the oil is too thick when the engine is hot. Either put in straight 20 WT oil or get the Pe

Your throw out bearing is probably shot, or your spigot bush is fried. Either way it all has to come out and be fixed. In the future don't buy rebuilt clutch components, buy only new ones. Get AP or

I should clarify that the problems I had were with old MWS supplied Dunlops (20 years ago). I haven't had a problem with them since BWW rebuilt them with SS spokes 15 years ago. Cheers, Alan '53 BN1

Go with a BJ8 cam or Road Rally cam. Don't go with anything hotter than that. Put in pertronix electronic ignition on the old lucas distributor. Put on a rear engine seal. It is easier to put on if

Electric fans rarely, if ever, help reduce the heat in a 6 cyl. healey. The problem lies in the fact that the radiator is just a hair small for the engine, so if you install an electric fan, it redu
