All the information is quite helpful. Yes, I have to admit the car Russell is referring to is my 34, I guess at the moment she has seen better days. The car (since restored) had only done 2500 miles before the tappets began tapping. Then a loud banging noise began in the engine. I limped the car to the mechanics (i know I should have turned the car off as soon as I heard the noise)

A hard lesson learned. Now the big rebuild begins. I now have a bettter idea of what to do in regards to bearings.

I will let you all know how the rebuild goes

Kind regards,
Mathew
