Even Anders Ditlev Clausager refers to the 2600cc engine numbers being
pre-fixed '1C' in his Restorers guide. Also the Concours registry guidelines
refer to 100-6 engine numbers pre-fixed '1C'. However it is without doubt
absolutely certain that the representation on the engine plates of these
early engines is clearly 'IC'.

Subject: [Healeys] Engine number "1"CH or "I"CH for the Longbridge BN4
My British Heritage Cert tells me that the engine for my BN4 should be"1CH
/40757". However when I check the engine plate on the engine, the number
begins with "ICH / 40757". Longbridge BN4 owners, could you check please to
see if you have the same situation that I have noticed on my BN4. Does
anyone
know if this is unique with the method that the UK assigned their numbering
method?
Just as a side note, the engine number for my BN1 from the British Heritage
Cert tells me that the engine number begins with "1B", and that number is
what
is located in the engine plate "1B"., so I am confused why the two numbering
formats would not be consistent?
Thanks in advance for any insight that can be provided.
jim
