Kelvin,
Thanks for clearing up this issue for me..as for
the cast crank and "softer cam".. I drove my Morris
Marina TC over 200,000 miles, most of them at 5500 rpm
or better. I had no problems with the crank or cam. On
the contrary, my MG roadster,the 1977 in particular,
has had several flat cam lobes develop. Did it have a
Marina cam??Did my Marina have an MG cam???hmmm.
Howard
