I think the distinction is that a pre-order is for something not yet available.I really don't think it is worth upsetting yourself over though.

Mine used to oil up the plug on the third cylinder every 100 miles or sobecause of worn rocker gear - so my through-the-hedge-backwards-on-fire antics were restricted to 11 mph.

taking them out, throwing them in a skip and putting a small block chevy V8 inbeing the only actual "fix"
They are fucking awful, Kroney. They're two Dolomite straight 4s welded together in a V. It's the sort of fucktarded piece of engineering horseshit that only '70s era BL could pull off.
They had access to 3 perfectly good V8s from the BL stable and so they made their own which was measurably worse in every single characteristic than any of the ones they could have had for nowt.

Incorrect. A cursory wikipedia searchwill tell you that the four pot came later than the V8. It was designed as a V and then cut in half. The heating issues came from an inadequate rad and bad production practises. The engine itself is a sound design.
