I don't have any first hand experience of them.

Second-hand, I have heard from the Morris Minor Workshop that the fast road MCCS engines are difficult to set up. They have a marked tendency to pinking due to increased compression ratio.

Thanks for that, my intention if required is to get a basic 1098 head only.
