I have bought a 1977 roadster which was originally built to LHD US spec
exported to California and re-imported to the UK in 1990 by a firm
specialising in rebuilding US cars for the UK market who according to the
original invoice, among other things, converted it to RHD and fitted a
reconditioned engine. I guess it likely that this new engine was also from
a California spec car since the number seems quite similar to the original
(per the BMIHT Heritage Certificate).
Can anyone help me decipher this number which is 18V-797-AE-L/315 ? In
particular, assuming the head relates to the block for that number, is it an
unleaded engine ?
