Phil Searle and I are kind of curious. We've been trading E-mail as I 
try to figure out the lineage of my '71/'72 TR6, and he brought up an 
interesting point that it may be unusual for the engine number to be 
lower than the commission number of a given car. His reasoning, and it 
makes a lot of sense, is that Triumph supplied engines to other car 
makers and it would be more common to see higher engine numbers.

Does anyone else have this situation (engine # < comm #) besides me? If 
anything, I would expect it to happen on the earlier (pre-'72) TR6s. 

Thanks to all for your help!
