It's a 1966 988cc donor
Was built in 1987 and the current spec is;
998cc bored to 1014cc
Flat topped pistons
12g295 head
Rim flow valves
Fast road cam
Solid rockers
Duplex timing chain
Lightened flywheel
It has a piper x magnum 2780r cam
Vs4 valve springs
Cooper s valve retainers
Gas flowed head
32mm inlet
27mm exhaust
Had a 60 thou skim
And has a 10.26.1 compression ratio
And a AIF6 44 carb with bdl needle and red spring
Pick up this Saturday

Kerb weight is only 542kg so lighter than the mini also
