[Healeys] Streamliner a Bonneville -2012

100S heads do not grow on trees. The real problem is a rear stud got loose.
These standard blocks have to have all the studs removed, plugged and new ones
put in new locations. One didn't have enough meat to bite into I guess. We
pulled the stud, put in a helicoil but still not good enough. I do have an old
original S head that we could have brought along, but it has 1/4 inch taken
off the bottom. The original's were not heat treated and were way too soft for
the application, let alone any boost.
