RH cylinder block at SVR Bridgnorth on Sunday

12th July 2015 after being returned from repair

to its exhaust passage. Unfortunately, although

this repair was a success,it has since been discovered

that a serious crack exists in the main cylinder bore

which cannot be rectified and this means the block will

need to be replaced with a new casting. A new CAD

drawing is being prepared so that the cost of a pattern

(probably polystyrene) and casting can be obtained.
