[Healeys] Fw: healey motor/gearbox measurements

[HealeyRick]

Rich, I just measured again and still came up with 29"  Are you measuring from
the very bottom of the sump or from the sump directly under the "T".  Maybe I
have one of the rare "deep sump" pans from the Cape?

Regards,
Rick

Rick, et al,

I thought I was losing my mind so I just went out and checked the heights on
a
26D series and a 29K series and used a straight edge across the bottom of the
pan on each engine (both engines are sitting in stands) and measured to the
top of the T breather pipe. Both measured within 3/16" of 27" total height.
Variation was due to one of them having the T pipe screwed in a bit further
than the other.
And that's measurements taken using the Queen's Imperial measuring system.

        On my 29Dthe height from the lowest part of the oil pan to the top of
the T was more like 29", everything else matches Rich's dimensions.  Perhaps
Rich was measuring height in Canadian inches and I was measuring in American
inches?

          Lin,

          A couple of weeks ago a good portion of the list members were
heading to Conclave!

          - height from bottom of oil pan to top of T pipe on rocker cover
27"
          - length from fan centre to engine back plate 33 1/2"
          - length from fan centre to end of propshaft on gearbox/od 64"
          - Width from distributor across to air cleaners approx. 25".

you can refer me to, I would appreciate it. I am looking  for things like
height from bottom of oil pan at lowest point to the  top of the rocker cover
(or the vent "T" pipe on the cover), depth  from fan center to engine
backplate, depth from fan center to end of  the gearbox, width of the block
and width from the air cleaners to the  distributor (widest point of the
assembly)
