[Healeys] 100 Engine rebuild

[Greg Lemon]

Tedeuz, looks like you have the rear seal kit and the flew replacement oil 
line at the pump, two good mods, looks as though the block has been decked 
to insure a good seal for the head gasket, looks like a higher compression 
piston, good as well, has the head been checked for cracks?  it often 
cracks.

Did you think about lightening the flywheel the motor was used in a truck a 
the flywheel is a real boat anchor at 40 plus pounds, I had my local machine 
shop take quite a bit off, maybe 12 pounds or so, didn't cost much.

Looks good, looks like you are doing the right things good luck,

Greg Lemon
