<div class=3D"gmail_default" style=3D"font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif=
; font-size: small;">A 29F engine is from a 3000 MkII around 1962. <br />Th=
e bores are 3.281" whereas the original engine for your car had a bore of 3=
.125".<br />It is very likely that the carbs and manifolds from the 100/6 w=
ere used because a 29F engine had 3 carbs requiring different manifolds, th=
rottle linkage and various other details.</div>
<div class=3D"gmail_default" style=3D"font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif=
; font-size: small;">Depending upon how accurately you want to restore the =
car you could leave that block in or try to find an original 100/6 block. <=
br />You really have to know your Healeys to be able to tell the difference=
 externally.</div>
<div class=3D"gmail_default" style=3D"font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif=
; font-size: small;">If that degree of accuracy is not required I would sug=
gest that you rebuild the 3000 engine and use it. <br /><br /></div>
