Yes i would agree with paul S

It's certainly "A", not "A+" from the dizzy mounting and the helix angle of the gears...

Beyond that I'm useless with the numbers but you could try here

Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ???

deffo looks a bit odd.

i think it might be a mis-match of parts.

1300gt blocks had 11 stud holes,

the close ratio 4 sync laygear will have 1040 stamped on it.

they deffo look like S rods which is odd, i would measure the bigend journels and look for cross drilling on the crank. could be an S crank and rods in a 1300 block.

also measure the stroke, could be a stroker.

How many teeth does the top left cod have in the gearbox?

1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

but the blok dont have the 1300 gt part number and this is the reason why i´m very confuse like the head is a normal 940 but in the side of the termo the normal 940 pre a is faced and that isn´t faced :-S this engine makes me very confuse

Even BL didn't put fish in gearboxes...

Could it be out of an Austin 1300? How big is/was the back plate for the timing case?

I've got an A seriesd out of one of them and the back plate is massive as it's used as engine mounts

silver seal or gold seal early 1275gt engine? they ran 12g940 heads :)

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

the more i think about it the more I agree with austin, only thing is would an early bitza 1275gt end up in portugal?
