Only for looks - the B34 was a pile of pretty scap metal. On of my old
mates lightened, 'adjusted' heads, fitted 1" Monoblocs, bumped-up
compression atio, tripled oilflow, fed oil into both ends of crankshaft,
improved gearbox and made Dural big-ends for a T35 Mk5 Douggie.

Lost a DBD B34 on the M1.
