The motor has a "brookland" sticker behind generator and looks green the actual motor. Title: Re: weird engine number Post by: fe350chev on March 14, 2011, 07:23:58 PM B277179 is engine number in the blue car. has sticker "manufactured by Brooklands" and a little racing chequered flag sticker.
Must be a late EK motor??? Title: Re: weird engine number Post by: mcl1959 on March 14, 2011, 08:22:50 PM Yes you are right - EK motor. Brooklands was a Melbourne company which rebuilt motors (among other things). A little bit extravagant claiming they manufactured the engine. Re-manufactured would be a more honest claim :)
