A "blown" Ulster engine, fitted with a late-Ruby head and other mods. Note the water pump - virtually unique to the Ulster, the rear-mounted oil filler with oil pressure adjusting valve underneath, the non-original SU carb, short nosepiece, semi cross-flow radiator and pipes leading to the modern remote oil filter. This car also has a coil conversion, dispensing with the relatively unreliable magneto, but retaining all the fittings to change back if desired. Note too, no fan is fitted, nor necessary under most conditions and the absence of a dynamo which also wastes power. Just visible by the rear bottom hose clip, is one of the extra studs retaining the block, as this is a ten stud version.
