My BT7 engine is bored 40 over. I see on ahead4healeys' site that they have .60 over piston and ring sets. I have always feared what would happen if I ever had to rebuild my engine again? So the ques

I think you worry too much. My BT7 turned 50 in August. The engine has never been out of the car. I do not baby my Healey, I drive it spiritedly when I can. I consistently do well in autocrosses, an

These engines can be rebuilt many times over the years if need be. Boring to +.060" oversize is acceptable, then if need be, they can be sleeved back to standard size and start all over again. Theor

As usual, great comments and advice, concern born from hitting a rock with oilpan when I had around 6000 miles on the engine, spinning a crank journal and scoring a cylinder wall requiring me to bore

Ira, I'm a bit skeptical here. I know there's a lot of meat in those Austin blocks, but I would like some confirmation from someone, or two, down under that they have actually bored out their 3000 en

Relax Chris, I only said I was "skeptical" and asked about "having any issues" with boring out to 120 thou. I'm not challenging your statements so don't get your knickers in a twist. I Just wanted so
