I'll have to check as there were several iterations of the heads over time.

Sounds like a plan though, just need to make sure I don't get carried away this time around Smile

agreed... early (1970's) casting can likely use some bowl, and seat work, improving flow, yet keeping it all stock..... kind of like what I've done to the head from OST-050.... Wink

So small update, did reduce the pile of parts a tiny little bit and did some long overdue service.
- refreshed the distributor (new cap, arm and another thingy)
- changed the spark plugs (it had 3 different brands before)
- replaced the fuel filler tube (now I can finally put in more than 15 litres in the tank)
- replaced the speedo cable (no more GPS necessary to know how fast I'm going
- put in the new seatbelts though the'll need some more tinkering before I'm happy. Will try and source some proper ones from a 260 if I can find any.

Tomorrow I'll need to finish tracking down the wiring issue I have we the heater fan. I know the motor is good (tested) but I think when one of the previous owners installed the radio they messed something up.

Tuesday evening I'll have to go get MOT, so fingers crossed the weather will be dry (else I'll have to postpone it again) and that she passes.

Once she passed the test I'll go about fitting all the other stuff and get the carbs recalibrated.
