Gasket sets ...whats all this leaded or unleaded nonsense? Is there in fact any difference?
...I thought most late 60s and 70s cars that had all "ally" heads (like Reliant) were OK for unleaded without modification to the valve seats (albeit with small changes to timing and mixture) so why should there be difference in gaskets sets?

Umm, this is the question I was going to ask, can I run unleaded, yes Ally head like you say with seats, so ok to use unleaded ?
Sorry jumped in there but sure I seen someone on ebay selling plus 10 / 20 sizes

We use unleaded and don't mix, never had any problems

But not cheap - polish mains, take conrod pins out to +10 and supply bigend shells came to over £200 Got the main shells and thrust washers off EvilBuy but I guess I'll have to make do with the original pistons, rings (and leave the bores unhoned) to save any further cost  |
