My pet theory is that the R1155 was never intended to be repaired, beyond simple things like changing valves.

I would agree Andy but it is not suprising when you consider that they were probably not going to survive for more than a few months any way. Just check up on the number of bombers shot down during ww2... its horrendous.

I'm getting a copy as per my March comment [post 44*] Peter has put in an amazing amount of effort! This may turn out to be as much an item of historical research as a detailed restoration guide. Dave W

Now that Peter has completed his Magnum Opus it's time that we closed this thread.

Well done Peter, it involves a tremendous amount of work to produce something like this.
