The first modification was carried out at the RNHF I believe at the instigation of Ron Gourlay, on the Firefly. As mentioned it was the lack of spares, namely camshafts. To fit the blocks it was necessary to machine the cam covers to remove the lift attachments & also blank off the breathers. Cam timing was also changed. Since then the mod has been carried out many times. How long before we run out of 58 blocks?
