[Rovernet] 1969 Rover | eBay

[Vern Inkspot]

This actually a straight forward job if you have the set of spacers so you can take the cam bearing caps off one by one & keep the head torqued down. Parts-wise all you need is a camshaft & (probably) a cam cover gasket.

I can probably find you a camshaft in my pile of parts.

Yours
Vern
