i've at last made some progress with me landy and have stripped down me replacement Essex V6 engine that will one day (maybe even this year!!) go into me series 3. the v6 looks pretty good inside and most of the bearings and oil seals looked reasonably new!! but i've noticed a bit of a scar in the 2nd camshaft bearing and i'd like to get it sorted now rather then when i'm stuck somewhere with a burst camshaft!
accordin to me 1972 ford consul/granada haynes book of lies replacing this bearing should be done by "your local ford dealer" but i'd like to know if this is possible for the average pleb in his shed to sort it.... or if not, who can!!
some pic's, cos everyone likes pic's!!!
right enough it'd be a right bastard to get out/in but i'm daft enough to try it!!
