Wel, as you can see by the long silence, I didn't get things done in time. Work and other things have intervened.
A brief update,
Repro master cylinder, worse than the original, so decided to refurbish the original (again) and have another go. Brakes now seem like they are coming back so a few more goes with the ezeibleed and hopefully that be that.
I've also tried to quieten the engine down but replacing the well worn tappets/ rockers.
So far I've doen the easy bit and replaced all the top rockers, shaft, brackets, springs and push rods. I've now got to do the side (exhaust rockers and inlet cam followers).
This is more trickey thanks to the rh cam follower being hard to get hold of (dunsold only have the LH ones, as do John Craddocks)
Hopefully work is easing off a bit now I'll actually get the land rover on the road!
On the positive side I went to the Series one club 60th bash at chepstow and had an excellent time. Amazing to see so many series ones in a field at one time
