Had the day off today so decided to do some engine work taking flywheel and clutch off and then putting in my mg metro cam timing it with the dot to dot method as this will be fine for my spec

I will be fitting a duplex timing chain cam followers etc, and new gaskets however that is a simple job which can be done after the engine has been painted. Next step for the engine is a big clean and a bmc green paint

Also got my bingley hall tickets
