Head identification

[ST TR5]

Hi all

I am collecting two engines tomorrow both have CT*****E stamped on the block so I am confident they are late TR4A engines but have dc37. b/L301435. d296 b/L301435 on the head which are different numbers to the heads of friends. Can anyone identify those numbers?

Cheers Sean

301435 refers to the 4 cylinder wet liner TR engine.

 

The other letters/numbers presumably identify particular batches, but I've not come across anyone who claims to know the logic behind the various sequences.

 

Cheers

Hi. Thanks

A couple of my friends have checked all there cylinder heads and they all have 302137 which is different to the heads I am collecting.

The seller tells me the engines were last ran in a Vanguard

Cheers Sean.

There's a good cylinder head ident guide here: http://www.tr3a.info/FAQ_heads.htm

The 4a head should have the chamfered bottom on the thermostat housing and a flat section above the no 1 cylinder ports.

Hi Sean

 

I asked a very similar question some time ago here on this forum.

 

Hopefully this link will take you there;

Not that it adds much more than others have reported here, but all info helps in my view

 

cheers
