I am getting ready to line bore my original Standard Vanguard block to take later TR3 replaceable cam bearings. The factory realized this problem by the mid-50's and put out a factory service bulletin in 1955. I found someone with the bulletin and he scanned it and sent it to me. I am posting all 5 sheets in case someone else is ever crazy enough to want to upgrade an original SV engine to TR3 cam bearings.

Reminds me of my technical drawing lessons more than 50years ago. How times have changed.

Very valuable salvage scheme well worth preserving and some lovely olds (proper) drawings too.

Good luck with the machining.

Served my time as a draughtsman at Chrysler in Linwood. Slightly more difficult for a left-hander with having to use the rulers upside down (sort of).
