Before i begin i'll apollogise for what is a probably a dumb question!
Took my van to a local garage today to get it booked in for a service and it's thrown up a couple of questions as to the identity of my engine. The code on the engine is B351795X which from my little knowledge would state it's a 1600 sp?? but it seems that the inlet manifold splits as it goes into the cylinder heads, Twin port?? Its running a Solex 31 Pict 3 if that makes any difference and the guy at the garage seemed to think that the inlet manifold is off a 1300?? There's also evidence that it's been rebuilt at some point, i have no mechanical knowledge at all and was just wondering if any body can make any sense of this as it all seems a right bodge up job to me and would like to know what i'm running.
Forgive me again if this makes no sense at all. :roll: Seb
