What's the easiest way to check the spare engine i've bought is a 1600? does bore diameter give it away, if so what diameter should it be? LC
yes, 85.5 for 1600 83mm for 1500 what letters does the number on the front alternator mount start with? that will give you a clue without tearing it apart.
I bought it knowing it was a 'T' code type 3 1600 engine, that said I've not checked it in the daylight yet to verify this. It's a fair assumption that it's 1600, but anything could be fitted to a 40 year old engine!
