Tr4Tony Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Yes looks like it, is your engine an ex Morgan mm series . Looking at the green paint ? Some of the lawrencetune super sport engines were this colour and had temp senders and bosses welded into the sump like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There is a particular interest at the moment as 2012 is the 50th anniversary of Chris Lawrence's (morgan) class win at Le Mans. The Morgan club of Holland are celebrating their 40th anniversary the weekend following CLM and they are setting up a Chris Lawrence tribute display. Malcolm T Quote Link to post Share on other sites
littletime Posted February 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi thanks for the info.It came out of a tr4 i bought over 30 years ago for spares (hardtop etc). I still have the old logbook (i think) so could check the engine numbers. It was also fitted with a oil cooler Quote Link to post Share on other sites
