Although the engine had overheated in the past Bri, I believe that was before Carl owned the car. The last time it was off was due to the timing slipping when the auxy belt shredded.


MGJohn stripped it down and I rebuilt the top end, and I think the head was either a replacement, or had been refurbished with new valves by a local company.
