Hi guys - any estimate date for when this engine was produced? The stampings are;

Head 302137
Engine block H255

Got a serial number?

Where on the block would it be Andrew? Sorry, never mattered to look before since these aren't show cars.

LH side, below the head, sometimes at least partially obscured by the coil bracket (if still mounted there).

Where the numbers are located...

...stamped into a boss cast into the block.

To give you one data point, the original engine in my 1966 TR4A (despatched April 6th, 1966) was CT68058E.
