It´s a 45 Weber. You´re right, the air filter is may too shallow - but for the Frogeye absolutely enough - I´m really happy with this - should I change :roll: , have to try 8)

Re: Engine Number - please help

Hi - not yet.

But the suspension will be changed in one week - now I know the engine type and can start working - during my checks I found out that the suspension at the rear is really in not in a good condition. It is still the original one and I guess I will change it to a hydraulic one.

Re: Engine Number - please help

Hi,

so, the only two open questions are:
1) When was is built/produced?
2) To what kind of car does this engine normally belongs to?

Many thanks for all the help and support

Re: Engine Number - please help

Hi Mike,

thanks for your answer - but the plate on the block shows the number: RKM1127E 14252

Sure and no doubt that this engine does not belong to the Sprite MK1 but what else can I do to identify this engine?

Any idea?

cheers
