as my grandad used to say ''a blind man would like to see it''. not very 'pc' these days but true all the same

if the contact is 'only just' you could drill the new front spring hangers further forward, drill the axle mounts spring locator holes forward and either try the shackle mount as is or again move the rear spring/chassis mount forward. basically you'd move the leaf springs/shackles forward in the car...

you may get that thick primer on smoother with a small radiator roller.

bugger the weight, that looks the nuts

you may already know this but a tip for painting engine bays that aren't completely stripped is to cover wires, cables etc with baco foil not tape. easy to apply and scrunch tight to whatever and more importantly it comes off just as easy. anyone who's had to unmask the above parts that are wrapped ...

i'm sure someone like ray of rays classic cars https://raysclassiccars.com/ would do it for you. he's an english guy who moved to the us 40+ years ago, he advertises in all the american/custom mags here. very nice guy and he could probably put it in a vehicle he's sending to the uk for you. it's def...

if you have a friend with a us address why not forward the money to them so they can order it for you and just pass on whatever the postage costs are to you. at least someone in the us is dealing with the supplier that way.

and while you're there don't forget the core plugs each end of the heads, the back ones are a bugger to do right up against the bulkhead.

it's been a while but the engine guy's been in touch with ash saying the crank's done. 10 on the mains and 30 on the ends. he'll be happy once he starts comparing prices with the small block chevy he had before, lol.

i don't want to gloat but i've been putting my stand on engines for years mate. i think where you're the king of research i may be king of finding the easy way to do things, if sometimes a little unconventional. i worked for my dad running his haulage company workshop for many years and always looke...

i just knew as i was typing that you'd already thought of everything possible, lol. agreed, that looks like a good plan. aesthetics play a big part provided functionality isn't compromised and of course it's not. one of if not the most thought out and planned builds i've read, car or bike. :thumbrig...
