Re: GTE Engine Rebuild
Hi John,
here are the details of the bolt - see pics.
Hope it helps. It looks like it was done in a lathe and the head not fully skimmed.

Re: wiper motor source
I have good experience with Steve Hunt in the Uk. He rebuilds them and has big stock of Lucas Wiper parts. He has done two motors for me so far. You will find him on ebay.

Re: 250 Gte Distributor
Just to add. This comes from the Service and Maintenance handbook but it irritates us as it does not corresbond with the manual data?
