HI all,
Have been wondering about my engine recently.
Started when I noticed that it only had single valve springs, and as a
1500 I thought it should have doubles.
Anyhow it took a while for me to get round to matching the engine number
with those listed, only to find my engine is a Dolomite 1500 RWD engine.

I think it may the same sort as John Hobson is transplanting into
Saskia.
Does anyone know wether there are any other differences I shold know
about between the Dolomite engine and the spit.
Different compression ratios for instance?
Cheers
