Re: LA Light Six engine setting torques

The six light refers to the no. of side windows on the LA ten saloon . The light six was a different model and it refered to the No. of cylinders.
It also had a fixed head. Frenchy

Re: LA Light Six engine setting torques

Just as a matter of interest, is the vehicle in question a six light or a light six.
There is a difference in the original engines fitted. One being four cylinder the other a six cylinder.
The six light has either the 1203 or the 1444cc . the light six has the 1378cc Cheers Frenchy
