Let us not forget, The 997 cooper was only produced fomr 1961-1964

So it should be a 998. :dontgetit:

Interesting... The 997 code was a 9F if I remember correctly...

99H means it IS a 998 engine. I doubt it's a 998 cooper engine, The code suggests it isn't and that particular was only bit up unitl 1969.

what does the actual engine have stamped on it?
