Early 850 engine?

Post by jamiestevens94 »

I am looking for some help identifying an 850 engine I have. I don't have any history of it before purchasing it a few years ago as a spare as my early deva bush primary gear fell apart when I was rebuilding my engine. Unfortunately the primary gear in this engine was different to what I had so it never got used and the engine remained in the corner of the garage since. Once identified, I will looking to sell it on if anybody is interested in it. Photos of it included below along with the identification numbers. Thanks in advance!

Looks like a 61 engine to me.

From communication on another group, I believe it has been identified as an approx April 1961 engine with cone synchro box. If anyone is interested in it, please send me a PM

If its for sale, put it in the the For Sale section, you are more likely to sell it as well.

Note condition five, add a price
