You have to be careful mixing these heads and barrells. The top spigot on the 59 is 76mm dia. The 60 on heads are 77.7mm. So the later heads will go on but you might get a lot of head gasket blowing. Also the exhaust angle is different on one side.

Ah didn't realise that Dave. As long as the Gateshead bike has a 59 engine and barrels it should be ok then.
Kevin, looking at the way that rear carrier has been fitted (or not) I would be concerned if the owner has been inside the engine!

I'd go and have a look at it and take it for a test ride.

I am thinking about it and the more I do I'm leaning to Keep my B40 I have for sale as I know it so well and forget about the 31 but I will consider things for a little while longer.
Again all advice appreciated
