[Healeys] conversion 100/6 engine ---> 3000 engine

[Alan Seigrist]

Erik -

To be honest you can get more or less 3000 performance in your 100 6
by simply using a hotter cam and 2" carbs.  Upshot of this is your
mileage will be a little better too.

Unless you are racing, there's not much advantage to fiddling with the
100 6 block.

That's my feeling after thinking about it a little more.
