I have a new head to fit to my R12 1.4 engined R10.
Along time ago in the early 70's I used to rally a Dauphine re-spec'd with R10 everything. The engine was well worked (45mph in 1st, 60mph in 2nd, 80mph in 3rd and 110 mph in 4th (down hill).
The point you ask over the nostalgia? Mid-life crisis? Ah yes! But those WERE the days!
It was fitted with heavy duty double valve springs. Is anything like that available for the R12 1.4 engine head? My local engine modifiers know of nothing.
Any suggestions please?
