My '29 had a Ricardo on for a while and the engine was probably similar. i.e. long unused and no knowledge of other than things being "well checked over". It ran beautifully with it on but even with the lowest CR version possible, it is still going to increase pressures throughout the engine, so just monitor...
Are you using the Ricardo head gasket, or one of the standard?
