<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-SIZE: small">Really that needed to be
posted to whole list??? You have never said anything you thought was correct,
and then realized you were mistaken when someone corrected you? I offer
assistance based on what I believe to be accurate and true based on over 40
years of working on Austin Healeys and cars in general. I try to pay back or
forward for all of the assistance I have received on this list. I am not
always entirely correct, but the basic premise that it was a 3000 and not a
100-6 was in fact the important piece he needed to sort out his pistons. I
would hope that if you feel a need to negatively comment on my post you would do
it off list and to me directly.</DIV></DIV>

Bud,</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default
style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: comic sans ms,sans-serif">A 29F
engine is from a 3000 MkII around 1962. <BR>The bores are 3.281" whereas
the original engine for your car had a bore of 3.125".<BR>It is very
likely that the carbs and manifolds from the 100/6 were used because a 29F
engine had 3 carbs requiring different manifolds, throttle linkage and
various other details.</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default
style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: comic sans ms,sans-serif">Depending
upon how accurately you want to restore the car you could leave that block
in or try to find an original 100/6 block. <BR>You really have to know
your Healeys to be able to tell the difference externally.</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default
style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: comic sans ms,sans-serif">If that
degree of accuracy is not required I would suggest that you rebuild the
3000 engine and use it. <BR><BR></DIV>

<DIV>I am rebuilding my100-6 BN4. I ordered a set of pistons. When they
came in the mechanic showed me they were too small. I have reached the
conclusion that the engine must have been swapped out at some point. The
number on the block is 29f/1H 5487. Can anyone tell from this # what the
engine might be.<BR>Thanks for any help.<BR>Bud
