I just purchased an engine and gearbox which were listed locally on Craigs list.
The PO said it was a 1725. He based this on the fact that he removed it from a 67 alpine when he replaced it with a Ford small block. However when I got there and inspected it, I got surprised. The s/n on the engine is B399002099. It looks like a 1725. Has twin side draft strombergs, dipstick into block. Bought it anyway, because price of $150 seemed right. He said it was running when removed.
Anyone have any idea what this came from?
