Hi,  I recently acquired a Spit Mk IV chassis with engine and gearbox (not 
overdrive unfortunately). 
Now I also have a Spit Mk II engine ( FD 23635HE) valve seats converted to 
unleaded. 
I wonder if the Spit Mk IV engine     ( FH 32016HE) is better than the MK II 
?
Also I notice that the leaf spring on the MK IV has only 5 leaves whereas the 
Mk II has seven leaves. Which one is best ? Thanks
 Any ideas anyone?

Happy Spitting...................John
Spit Mk II (1966) in bits..or as some would say (in restoration)
Spit Mk III donor car     ( I am nearly a collector)
Spit Mk IV chassis and engine......Yep...I am a collector
