Ive just changed my engine size on my V5 and the DVLA want me to provide proof of its size (which shouldn't be a problem) but they also want an engine number! The block had one but since having it skimmed and other work done it has gone and I don't know what it was?

it's a right cunt to change stuff like that now i've heard, engineers reports and all that, hence mines still down as a thou.

Your new engine number?

Ive got one sorted now, I didn't want to make a number up...knowing my luck someone else would already have that number registered to there car. lol I didn't know you could just make one up! So am I right in thinking a 1293 is actually a 1291.371605370496 CC? They want to know exact size. lol

bore is often taken as 71.15, and stroke as 81.3 or 81.33 On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

I thought the std crank was 81.23mm standard bore was 70.61mm giving a capacity of 1272.33 If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

In my other club these problems have been much more frequent recently and we appear to be advising the insurance company and letting the DVLA continue to look up their fundament for inspiration -seems to work. |

Interesting that you say that about the post office. The bloke who MOTed john's old yellow mini wasn't interested in the over bore size as he could only identify it as a 1275 block from the outside. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

The bloke who mot'ed my car looked at the engine and said 'thats clean ay it mate'. It was only after he gave me the certificate when he said 'how come you've got a turbo badge on it'. I then disclosed that it was a rebuilt overbored metro turbo in a mini and that it was registered as a 998cc. |

The MOT tester loved the engine, he was taking pictures of it and couldn't care less what it was. lol
