Pre a+ has a bigger alternator bracket.

pre a plus, due to all the stuff on the back and teh lack of vertical webbing.

Did you like the sheep?

apbellemy: agreed pre a+ because of webbing (or lack of)

and the seep needs a jumper

Either I have forgotten what a Mini block looks like, or that is an auto block.

Offcourse I liked the sheep, especially the one with the jumper!
I'm now not in Holland, I'll be back on saturday, then I'll make some better pics!
Oh, and it came with a manual gearbox, but offcourse that doesn't say anything, because it wasn't assemblied when I bought it, I also miss one piston and rod, the crankshaft is an ordinary a+ crankshaft, the cam9232.
the cylinderhead looks like a metro turbo head, but it has a poprivet on it, so it should be unleaded, which can't be a metroturbo head, isn't it?

I thought the auto block was the same but some of the oil pump, oil filter head and dip stick drilling where missing.

Id say a gt block due to the threaded fitting on the back.
