There was never a 750cc A series engine. I believe 803 was the smallest 
A series, circa 1952 and it was never a factory installed Sprite engine.
BUT, there is always a but.
I am not positive on this but there was another Sprite model car from 
England, possibly a Berkeley or a Reliant was badged as a Sprite.
And I think THAT car came with a 750cc engine.
Something I read 15 years ago somewhere and I am not about to look for 
that info.
So he may be correct but he didn't have an Austin Healey Sprite.
At least not a stock factory AH Sprite.
