Are the smaller ones suitable for a tuned 1300 engine ?

The small ones would be OK for a 1300 engine size wise, but I don't think they did a 30° angle one in T1

What about the right hand though?

The 4815 T2 is easy to obtain where as the 4814 is like gold dust.

It seems that the crank is broken...

Looks like you've been to Brentford Nylons - that won't mean much to those abroad but for British people of a certain age :lol:
