Title: Flaminia engine rebuild Post by: lancianut666 on 11 October, 2024, 08:00:46 PM Hi all
Any one got any advice on reboring the liners in a 2.5 litre block? Remove or not remove?

Over a period of time the gasket at the bottom crushes into the aluminium and the liner sinks. If the liners have already sunk, they need taking out, cleaning and new gaskets making before then putting back in and rechecking measurements.
The liners need to be2-3thou above the block before you start reboring. Somewhere on this forum, around Christmas 2014 there was an article on the building of my 3C Flaminia engine, covering all this. I still have the clamping plate I made which hold the liners into the block. Let me know if you want to borrow it. 07970421633 Dave Gee Title: Re: Flaminia engine rebuild Post by: Richard Fridd on 12 October, 2024, 09:21:19 AM Dave's photo

Big thanks to Dave Gee for putting up with my questions during my delightful day in deepest darkest Leicestershire receiving the words of wisdom on rebuilding the engine as well as getting a loan of some very useful tools. Clarkey ps the engine man has the tools and he says he will start the rebore ASAP |
