[Healeys] FW: threading

[Dave Porter]

In the early T series MG's I had always believed that the engines used
either Whitworth or BSF threading, but lo and behold I was checking the sump
bolts with my thread gauge and they are Metric 1.50 and 1.75. Does anyone
know how this happened on a Brit engine?
 No prizes for the correct answer, but I would like to know the name of the
French company that was involved.
