So what engine would YOU use?

I'd put a 2 litre Type 4 VW boxer engine in it just to piss off the classic car folk... *grin*

The Vitesse with the expensive rear end IS the best handler, but only compared to other Vitesses. Any well sorted Herald should out handle a similarly spec'd Vitesse, though comparing like with like can be difficult, Vitesse owners being more prepared to spend money on performance add-ons, Cheers, Bill.

Same engine, it was only the bellhousing and flywheel that changed from my experience.

What happens about the gearbox shaft bearing in the end of the crank ?

Bloody good question.

I can't remember, but I don't remember having to change the crank so I imagine it's probably still there on the transaxle ones. Just unused.

Bill, What about a Morris 1000 unit. There must be loads of them lying around.

Hamish, I'm certain that your contributions are greatly appreciated by most of us, thank you.

I wonder if you could post the right way up and trim to context please? It would help with researching older postings in Google etc. There is a helpfile link in my sig. that you may find useful.

Huge has a list of other references, including one for correcting some of the bugs in Mickeysoft mail programs.
