ubject:=C2=A0Re: [Healeys] Engine block plugs<br>And don=E2=80=99t forget t=
o seal the internal oil channels in the block, I=E2=80=99m thinking of the =
channel from left to right and the one that goes up to the cylinder head. W=
hen you clean the block all the puriosite in the cast iron is exposed for t=
he oil pressure, which is higher than the coolant pressure, and you will ev=
entually end up with the deaded oil in water mess.<br>
There has been kits in the market to do this from the usual suspects. Magnu=
s Karlsson helped me with my block some 15 years ago. We screwed in threade=
d pipes in the oil ways.<br>
