Side Valve Engines

Post by **Kevin** » Sat Aug 16, 2003 12:27 pm

I know there have been queries about how and where to get side valve engines rebuilt and there has not been much luck well I have been passed this on from a Morris 8 owner as a rebuilder

of side valve engines, I assume he may also be a source of spares.

That's very close to me and I drive along Freeman's Lane quite frequently. It's a residential road with parks on both sides. Can't say I've ever noticed a workshop or garage there and sadly I've never seen a Morris 8 or series MM parked anywhere in Hayes...

Chris as far as I was told he is an engine builder not a mechanic so he may just be running it from home in his garage or perhaps his workshop is elsewhere, and he may not have a full size workshop/garage. The guy I got the address from had him rebuild an engine for his Morris 8 a couple of years ago and was informed that it was not completly correct for the year of the car? and sorted that out as well, so he must have a fair bit of side valve knowledge
