    Pearson Head conversion

    Hi,
    does anyone have any experience in Pearson Head conversion's ?
    What would be involved in restoring the engine back to its original state?
    Would it be just the head and piston that would need to be changed back or would any other alterations have been made during the conversion?
    The bike is 1958 Scotish.

    Here is a photo of a villiers 6e with an Ajax conversion (fitted in a 1951 James rigid). Other than this was made by B&C Pearson, Knowle, Birmingham in the 50s and 60s and is, along with the Vale Onslow conversion the only conversions allowed for pre60 villers engined scramblers, I can't find...

      Hi John,
      Looks very similar to the one fitted to "my" Scotish.
      Telephoned Nametab Engineering today and the chap there seamed to think replacing the gasket, piston and pot plus adjusting the timing would be all that was necessary. Hope he is correct.
      Regards,
      Andy.
