1973 Triumph TR7RV

Under all that caked on oil on the ’73 TR7RV was a head in terrible shape.  Exhaust blowing up the front engine studs.. needs welding, head and cylinder need planning, cylinder needs to be bored out to .40 over, needs new valves and guides. There’s several other things but pretty much  it’s going to cost more than twice what my last top end job cost. It had been run hard for a long time and tightened a down to prevent leaking and it shows.
