I thought my mini had a standard A engine with the 12G295 head.  Turns out that I have an A+ with a 12G295 head.  Does this sound right?  Or am I just an idiot?

They didn't fit the 12G295 heads to any A+ from the factory, in fact, I think the last 12G295 heads ceased production around 1974.

 

It would have been retro-fitted.
