I was told it came out of a 63. It is a 1600cc.
True.. But likely a s3 motor in a sii hence the addition of the header tank. Look at the zenith manifold.. Is the unique s3 one with the booster take off that's been plugged with a hose and boltThat doesn't appear to be S3. Trans looks like it has a 61 date. S3 also didn't have the radiator tank.

Dont think to make it look older.. They said was a series ii it came from..so just switch the thermostat housing over and header tank amd plu the vac for the booster and plug into the sii. Job doneYup. Series 3 March 1963 by that number. But some things apparently changed to make it seem older.

I understand about the casting date of the trans housing, but is it very likely they had one sitting around for a couple of years before packing it with S3 gears?
