head gasket failed TR3a - advice


Recommended Posts

Thanks all for your continuing support with helpful comments. Rocker shaft is clean and all rockers slide nicely back and forth. I haven't over-revved the engine; honestly.

The oil pressure was fine during this episode; almost 60lbs at 1000 - 1500 RPM and a little under 50lb shot idle. I think the bearings are fine.

I've secured the liners with large washers, tube and nut &c. A quick check showed liners .003" proud; didn't check in 4 places though. I'll clean up and try and get some more accurate measurements. As you say figure of 8 gaskets might be damaged.

Thanks again to all

Andrew
