i was advised if i posted the engine number on here, someone would be able to check it for me and give me some more info.

i looked at the engine yesterday and noted down the engine numbers on the plaque at the top front right hand side, just below the head.
Although was hard to make out...
they read;
38G559
ER856878
AD
The 'ER' could of been 'EB' as it was hard to tell.
oh and its an 11 stud head,
and needs the cooper s style drive flanges and hardy spicer joints.
