[Healeys] Inherited Engine

[HealeyRick]

Thanks, David et al.

Sounds like the best course of action would be to use a bore scope with a
camera and take some pictures of the cylinders and pull a couple of bearing
caps.  The builder appears to have been meticulous, so I'm betting the
motor is ok, but it's still a leap of faith for the buyer.

Healthy Healeying,
Rick Neville
