Ok, so maybe I'm fixated on the aluminum Rover block, but it IS easy to weld. Anybody steer me towards Rover sleeves that are approx. 1" longer than standard. Maybe like for use in a large bore retrofit of a P 76 block? If so, I think I can, "bolt-on", Lotus heads. Definately will need 3.7" bore min. Thanks, roverman.
