Guest Wayne S Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Wow!!! Congrats Andy - I'll have to pop over for a sneak peek sometime! Welcome back to the TR fold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Elliott Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 The number you quote for the ening is from a TR4 or a TR4A. With Comm. No. TS 63379, the correct engine number should be about TS 63750 E and if your valve cover has the oil filler cat at the rear end of the engine, near the battery, you can be sure it's a TR4 engine.

a turner carbs Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 (edited) Thanks Don but it has the oil filler at the front , the mystery deepens Edited July 7, 2010 by a turner carbs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 doesn't the rocker cover from all the engines fit each other. So the front oil filler cover can still fit a 4/4A engine. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 That engine is from an early TR4 for definite with a CT number. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
