We have had a discussion about pistons etc recently, but can anybody
enlighten me as to the difference between the 29D block and E & F varieties,
apart from camshafts which are interchangeable anyway?

I have been informed that the earlier crankshafts are more desirable owing
to a higher steel content than the later ones.

Or is it just BMC sticking another plate to designate the different model
car it was fitted to?
