Re: Breather systems
As regards the neoprene sump end seals - they may need to be trimmed in length to suit.

Re: Clutch cylinder
The ring seal is for the alternative after market piston fitted to some slave cylinders.

If your slave cylinder does not have the ring seal ditch the ring seal.

Re: Opening up a 202 head
I suspect that you have put the above as an example but I notice that the head in the above photo is not a 202 item and you have removed the manifold locating rings which are there to line up the manifolds and so aid gas flow.

Re: Ford gearbox
If the Cooper S exhaust manifold is a ex factory pressed steel item and is intended to be fitted a Minor it will hit the chassis leg. I suspect that any aftermarket Classic Mini LCB exhaust manifold will do the same. The throw out of the bottom of the manifold is there to clear the Mini gearbox ther...

Re: Opening up a 202 head
I have to agree with Les. If you want improvement - source a 12G295 head, skim 0.060" from the head face and you have a very good and efficient head without having to do much work. The down side of the 12G295 head is the price. :-( Saying that here is a 12G295 head going cheap (at the moment) h...

Re: Clutch Master cylinder used with Toyota 5 speed box
I believe that the Toyota 5 speed conversion done by the Morris Minor Centre for use in a Morris Minor used the clutch release mechanical linkage. The hydraulic clutch release system was used on the MG Midget/Sprite conversion. For example - you can use a clutch master cylinder fitted to the cross m...

Bill That is the main seal of the slave cylinder. The dust seal of the slave cylinder is much larger. See link below. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395196380647?itmmeta=01HWJHXB2ZACMZY64D4Z2EZYR9&hash=item5c038a35e7:g:tqcAAOSwMSxfw-yI&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAABAIDWhzUbgU1dnMmsRKEcC6yPzURyL3dTxxv4TtN...

Re: Rear brake shoes
Having just checked the various greases and lubricant I have (at least 10) non of them have a use by or sell by date.
So long as the grease is in a sealed container it will not deteriorate.
I would agree with the argument for regular quality control/testing of lubricants used in the aircraft industry.

Re: Cylinder head refurb
Only the exhaust valve seats need to be changed. That is the old exhaust valve seats cut out and new hardened valve seats pressed into place. The original valves both inlet and exhaust can be refaced. There is no need to replace any valves unless the valve seats are damaged. The valve guides could b...

Re: Rear brake shoes
Correct - the rear wheel bearings are lubricated by the oil in the rear axle. There is a trend to use sealed bearings for the rear hub of a Minor. The sealed bearing is in some ways better than the open seal as crud/metal particles in the axle oil cannot get into the bearing and cause problems. Depe...

Re: Relocating rear spring hangers
The wheel is not necessary in the centre of the wheel arch. As the spring flattens & especially over time the axle moves rearwards and that is why there is a sliding joint to the rear of the gearbox.
