I have what is registered as a 1975 Austin Mini. The original VIN and engine identification plate are gone. I was told when i purchased it, it had a 998 in it. But after looking at it and doing some research, it seems to have a 1275. I believe that it is a 1275A and not an A+. The casting stamp on the head is 12G940 and the distributor is a 41257(25D). From what i can tell this engine is out of a Mini 1275GT, but I am not 100% sure. Is there anything else that I can look at to further identify my engine.

Mini Identification: Identifying Minis by Engine/Power Unit
Classic Mini Identification: Identifying Minis by Engine/Power Unit When is a Mini, is a Mini, is a Mini? Most current or potential Mini owners have no idea how to tell what kind of Mini they have. In fact, in many cases they don’t even know there are really so many different Minis.
This is the best source to figure out your engine.
