I am attempting to access a number of oversize/undersize parts to =
recondition a 1595cc engine from a 1951 Land Rover 80" the vehicle is =
currently under complete restoration.

The engine number is: 16109565 and the VIN:16661747.  (I have been able =
to access new original Land-Rover ex-British Army +.060" pistons without =
rings (2 compression 1 intermediate stepped scraper and 1 "H" section =
scraper ring per piston))

I need:
  a..  +.060" OS Rings (2 compression and 2 scraper) for 4 pistons=20
  b.. Con Rod Bushes (little end) for 4 pistons=20
  c.. -.030" US Con Rod (big end) bearing pairs for 4 journals=20
  d.. -.030" US Front Main Bearing pair=20
  e.. -.030" US Rear Main Bearing pair=20
  f.. -.030" US Centre Main Bearing pair (with thrust washers)
I also need the rear main oil seal for this engine - I have been told =
that this may be one of a number of  variations and modifications of the =
rear oil seal in this model.  This engine crankshaft does not have the =
reverse archimedes screw and the seal is not the same as the =
leather/neoprene seal used in the later (1957) 2litre engines.

The rear seal arrangement is a 2 piece aluminium housing with 2 piece =
rope seal  inlaid into a groove in the housing halves.  (It replaces =
cast iron oil retainer cap that is fitted to the earlier 1950 engine I =
have.)  The crank diameter at this point is 2.331".  I believe this a =
modification not a standard part.  Any Ideas about this one?
