How to check if it is a 1275??

Post by williamraff »

Hi, can anyone advise the correct identification code for a 1275 block and where this would be? I have found "9J20" on the right hand side of the engine block when viewed from the front if this helps?
Many thanks,Will.

A 1275 block has no tappet chest covers. The code starts with 12CE in the case of the Midget engine.
The number is on an alloy strip rivetted to the block under no 1 plug
