Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know all that, I even saw him race. Please explain, though, how this indemnifies Col from being wrongly advised ,mistaken, or just plain wrong!

The trick lies in knowing which bits fit what. Bear in mind that many Coventry Climax castings were sub-contracted to Auto and Marine (A&M) in Coventry; they also did a number of the castings for the Imp motor.

At one point, I came very close to securing the patterns for the so-called 'deep head', but unfortunately, after all those years I was just a matter of a few months too late....

Just look on the whole thing as a contiguous parts catalogue from which bits could be mixed and matched.
