st… performance much improved !!….oil pressure at 75 psi no hint of running hot …. stayed just above 185 entire time …. much better torque in all gears (stronger then my Healey in the lower gears ) cruised easily at 60-65 MPH …. was never tempted to shift up hills generally very peppy . Plus engine sounds much smoother.. Bravo

“Doug is the Man. What he doesn’t know about English sports cars isn’t worth knowing. He came to collect my dead-to-the-world BJ8 Healey and breathed new life into it. He did the work in stages as money was available, storing it while it awaited the next phase. And, jeesum, you should see it now. It’s the Healey Monster, a little green beast of a car. Cheers!”
Drew, Austin-Healey owner

” For ten years I struggled alone through the variegated minutia involved in restoration .At times the list appeared never-ending . certainly overwhelming …finally I brought the car to English Auto . Doug was a tremendous help . He did a fabulous job on the body, paint, interior and convertible tops. He ended up doing a lot of the mechanical work too. Working with someone who is knowledgeable makes all the difference …”
