Rover Cars early side valve head gasket sets

A quite new set of four cylinder Rover Cars head gaskets set,enough to do two cars? I have no idea which model they came off, marked on the ORIGINAL packing:

Decarbonising Gasket Set

Part N0.272677

please note,this does not fit a Rover V8,honest,I have been asked three times on Gumtree so far!

Porche Engine and Cylinder Head Gasket Set

This is a new set of gaskets,said to fit a 2.4 or possibly a 2.7 Porsche engine,the buyer must confirm.They are in the original makers box,in good condition,excepting surface rust on what I assume are the gaskets to the cylinder bores,I would probably change those,R2000 buys them.

Nicks Didi 34 building pictures

Nick has just supplied some great pictures of his Didi 34 build,we asked for them to allow us to email to a customer just about to set up building his Didi 38,its the same boat,just larger,so the build pictures will look much the same.This means we can supply a building CD with our Didi kits now.

Hillman Imp Competition manifolds

LARGE BORE MANIFOLD,silencer is an extra.We can also now offer in 304 grade Stainless Steel.


We are receiving quite regular requests from world wide on quality exhausts and inlet manifolds,I assume this is because mention is found on our Blogger Pages,we can make just to a standard small bore exhaust Sunbeam Imp specification,the same manifold was fitted to the Singer Chamois Sport and also the Sunbeam Stlletto,or to a large bore 180 series Sport head size suitable for competition,larger carburation and a wilder camshaft,this set up is a large bore type.We will need to know what cylinder head you are using,as while the Sport manifolds will fit over the Mk 1 and 2 ports,the reverse is not true.We aim to supply the same top quality as found on the works Rootes Competitions dept,Fraser and Hartwell Imps,equal at least to such fabricators as Janspeed etc.
