I have a vague memory of what we called =E2=80=9CTransitional =
Rovers=E2=80=9D ie a mix of Imperial and Metric. All =C2=BE tonner long =
wheel-base. All UK based. They may have been peculiar to the army.
Glad I wasn=E2=80=99t in REME=E2=80=A6..they had to maintain them.

All the threads on the 100/4 engine are BSF not Whitworth. Whitworth is =
a coarse thread.=20
However the wrench sizes are interchangeable. They are one size apart =
from each other.=20
=20
The threads on the small plate are 1/4 bsf and the gen bracket is 5/16 =
bsf. Also look close there are some of the studs that go thru into the =
cooling system.=20

So, I am getting ready to install the head on my 100 short block. Made =
sure all the intake valves have the new seals I bought from British Car =
Specialists plus the new set of springs I already had for the valves. =
The two mating surfaces were cleaned with a white (finest grit) Roloc =
brush. I have the correct head gasket (copper faced). Tonight was the =
night to torque the head down to the block. My surprise, for some =
stupid reason I only ordered 8 new head nuts. I managed to order the =
correct amount of washer for the head. No idea what my pea brain was =
thinking. Also found out the head nuts are Whitworth (3/8") size. I =
have a Whitworth socket set, so tragedy averted there. I seem to =
remember someone talking about the water jacket blanking plate earlier =
this week. That made me look at the front of my block. Three studs and =
an empty hole. No cover. I managed to find two blanking covers in my =
stash of parts and a gasket in my gasket set. Woohoo, but no nuts or =
lock washers. Can someone tell me if these little nuts that I do not =
have are Whitworth nuts. If so, what size? I have a generator bracket, =
but there are no threaded studs for the block or nuts to mount it with. =
Once again, Whitworth? The closer I get to putting this together the =
more stuff I find out I don't have.
