Roys Hillman Imp years

The Hillman Imp, my first car, I had my UK drivers licence at the age of 17, the next thing was to buy a Mk1 Imp. I now realise that with my fifty (50) years of Imp experience, I may have some past tips on the Imp to pass on? Since then there have been many other cars and things with motors in them that have come my way, this blog is about some of them. There is also a large inventory of Imp parts in stock, view the main blog on boats at http://ckdboats.blogspot.com/

The R20 Imp race camshaft on a series 108 cylinder head

Setting the R 20 up requires that the number one inlet valve opens at the cranks TDC 0.113" give or take 0.002" either way, note the dial gauge to allow this to be set.

The 108 series head is on a 998cc cylinder block.

The parts are all re manufactured, or in the case of the camshaft carrier a new item, only the Sport cylinder head is original, circa 1967/8?
