There is just that "little bit" extra machine work to be done to fit Stepped liners

And machine a rebate in the block for the top hat liners, then deck the block, etc.

Triumph Rover Spares in Adelaide wanted the same amount to do the job. In fact, I had planned to send the block to them then I found I could get it done locally.

Hi yer I realize the bore has to be machined, stepped and decked but

theres not 7 hours work to do that...an 1 hour to push the liners in

machine shop hourly rate must have gone up a hell of a lot in the last 4

years just phoned my fitter an turner mate to confirm its only a days work

and he reckons if your machines are already set up half a days work maby

a bit more but certainly not more than 8 to complete job ....
