I have restored a BN1. The Four offers unique challenges compared with the Six, with a much longer stroke and but three main bearings. I would suggest anyone count on a new steel crank, adding a harmonic balancer and lighter flywheel to lessen torsional stress on the crank, and an alloy head as most originals are trash by now. Cost: an easy $20k with labor. Scary? Yes. But that’s how to do if of you want an engine you can rely on and drive as it was meant to be driven. The later Six really was an improvement overall and are known to be bulletproof for a reason. My two cents …<br><br><br><div class="yahoo-signature"><a style="font-size:12px" href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/aol-news-email-weather-video/id646100661">Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS</a><br></div><br><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: rgb(132, 115, 255); padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0px;">On Sunday, February 16, 2025, 1:54 PM, warthodson--- via Healeys <healeys@autox.team.net> wrote:</p><blockquote class="iosymail"><div id="yiv4642159200"><div><div style="font-family:Comic Sans MS, sans-serif;font-size:16px;" class="yiv4642159200ydpfa789da3yahoo-style-wrap"><div></div>
