BJ8 Restoration: Part 5: The Engine
Today we picked up our Healey 3000 engine from Mid-Island Engine and Machine in Duncan.
Scott and Chuck have a great facility and have proven extremely capable for this job.
They gave us a breif tour of the shop which had some pretty impressive machines.
For our Healey engine, Mid-Island balanced all the rotating masses, grinded the valves and fit new hardned valve seats.
