I emailed the seller - he replied that a major British engine rebuilder in NC rebuilt the engine and many of the parts had Kas’ stamp on them, but he didn’t take pictures and “some” of the “internal” parts of the 1500 engine w/ Kas’ stamp remain.

If it was a “major British engine rebuilder (of Spit) motors in NC it would be Rick Parent...perhaps we might have his comment?

That does look like the Spitfire that Dave Foreman ran here in Texas and it
did in fact have Rick Parent motor (at that time at least)
