Just had a very pleasant conversation with Dick Paterson and ordered a new engine for Olga.
It will come with a iron intake and a qjet as well as a springfield ignition
I expect her to behave as a calf on a spring field.
Yes it is expensiv, but it make me feel confident when we embark on our longtime travel.
Dick also gave me a possible explanation for Olgas troulble:
he says that installing manifolds is a very tricky business, and if enough care is not take they will leak cooling fluid, thus ruining the engine.
Olga has a new edelbrock manifold and carb
Well we will not be rolling before sometime in may, but there is still lots to do.
