Can anyone help me in finding a picture/photos of a WO 3 litre engine in 'exploded' view so that I can see what it comprises of and how it goes together. At this stage its just the block and top end I need to sort out. Many thanks in advance!

Technical facts has some drawings that might help. When you come to fitting the pistons, be VERY careful not to push them too far up the bores, as the bores are wider in the combustion chamber and if you get a ring into that wide part, you will never get the piston back down!

...thanks for that essential advice! I had no idea the bore got wider and I can well believe that inexperienced people like me would get the piston stuck! I think you have just saved me tons of problems!!
