Identifying a 1600 TP

[thejones's]

Just a couple of questions on buying a twinport motor. How can I identify its a 1600 twinport and not a 1300? (the flywheel has been removed).

And I currently have a 1600 singleport. Will the SP flywheel fit the twinport engine? The twinport has the 4 dowel fitment - is mine going to be the same?

Thanks.

The engine code stamped just below the generator pedestal is the most obvious way, however, if it's missing then the only sure way is too remove the heads and measure the barrels.
