interestingly enough, that's not the head I was thinking of. I think the
company was DKM - I'll do an Oz and google to try and find it if anyone
cares.

Do you every have *anything* valuable to add to any conversation other than

Well I am at least.... Wouldn't life be easier if someone had wanted a
definitive answer about tuning parts for Morris Nomads. I was going to say
Reliants (the 3 wheelers, not the Scimitar), but some mad bastards

with the mighty HT-E 850cc engine and a claimed 100+mph top speed).
