[Healeys] 100 Engine Numbers

[Patrick & Caroline Quinn]

Thank you Bill

 

It remains a mystery. I have 623 BN1s and BN2s in Australia on my register and of these 71 have engine numbers starting with H1B.

 

There doesn’t appear to be any pattern and they are spread over BN1 and BN2s.

The engine in my 54 BN1 is a 1B******M

I have no idea if this is the original engine (It was about 10 years old when I bought it) but the car was registered here in NY using that engine number.

I have never seen an engine number H1B. Possibly somebody was supplying reconditioning engines but genine BMC engines were marked SRB-19 and then a short number

 

Best regards

Hello

 

The bulk of the engines fitted to the Austin-Healey 100 BN1 and BN2 start with 1B, but some start with the H1B.

 

Would anyone know?

 

Thanks
