They are both 1098 engines. 10MA is a standard Minor engine. Not sure about the engine codes, perhaps someone could produce a breakdown of the system?

Probably somehwere out there on the net! Don't worry about it - the difference will be in the 'minor' details only!

First Letter = Vehicle Make M = Morris
Second Letter = Engine Type A = A Series
Third Letter = Body Type S = 4 door saloon
2S = 2 door saloon
W = Dual Purpose (Pickup/Van/Traveller?)
T = 4-seater Tourer (convertible)
First Number = Model Series 1 = Series I
2 = Series II
3 = Series III
5 = Post '62
Fourth Letter = If Non-Standard (i.e. not standard RHD) L = LHD
D = Deluxe


So 10 = 1098cc
M = Morris
V = Van
etc

If found this somewhere and kept it when I put my 1098cc engine in my car - mine came from a van as production for cars in NZ stopped in 1962 so the only 1098 engines were vans and utes
