Here is the engine number, if by chance someone is missing the motor from their car and wants to having matching numbers again. Attachment: 996879C9-C9F8-4E5D-97B9-CC757A879A67.jpeg

Chris, I am interested to know if that block has a hole cast above the center main, between number 2 and 3 cylinders? Or is it solid cast? Thanks Dave |

I believe that it's only the last of the A Series that didn't have the hole. IE 1275LS and some Mokes |

According to data in the Clubman GT Register it was probably originally fitted to a January 1973 car. |

I have found thin flange solid side blocks (1100S manual and auto) without the hole, and thick flange (1100S manual and auto) with. Which means the hole came later? Me thinks... |

I think that Vizard talks about the "holeless" block in one of his books |

My spare thin flange block has no hole, I always assumed the hole appeared with the thick flange.I don't remember if my other thin flange block has it or not. |

Another question about these engines. What camshaft and oil pump type did they have? RonR |

Ron, In Dad's it was basically stock 1100S gear but who knows what had been changed since December 1972. |
