Hey chaz, sure. I'll grab some photos next time I'm out at ricks (toad) :)
We (Rick) organised the head for you today so we should be able to pick it up next Saturday. I believe it is still attached to the engine so I'll give Rick a hand to take it off - I'll take some cloth and cardboard with me so I can put it in the back of one of the cars - it will be in Canberra next Sunday night - either at my place or Ricks.
Yay!! Thank you!!! Hopefully after that it wont take too much to get going. A 76 leyland mini has caught my eye too lol

is it really a six cylinder engine?
picture three in the original post shows the distributor cap, and unless I am mistaken, there are only four spark plug wires ?
other than that, great looking truck, should be a good project.
There are four spark plugs in clear view, another lead can be seen behind the distributor, and No 5 is behind the distributor. The SU carburetter and the IOE valve layout make it instantly recognisable as a six.Quote:

So yep my mistake, sorry.
