Just checking on changes needed to use an auto engine in manual config. I found the parts book has an 83mm piston option for an auto 1500 engine - up to engine 1 100 000. I make that up to July '65. Huh? Ah, M249 code was used for low compression, not auto at the time! Otherwise, I've got:- change balance pipe (twin carb) for one without vacuum modulator take-off (or seal up) change flywheel gland nut different distributor - any problem? the case is also given as different - is that the cut-out to get access to the plate? No probs then. I think it's twin carb - there are some other differences for FI with warm-up valve etc. Dave.
