The ZB we are restoring also has a 1622 engine but fitted with a ZA cyl head
the engine number is 16AMW-U-H 90619 .My understanding is that this is from
a Farina Morris Oxford as :unsure: indicated by the letters MW.The U stands for central gearchange and the H for high compression.Does anyone know what year the 90619 would indicate ?

Not sure about this, but it has been suggested this engine may be from a 1970s Morris JU van, a precursor of the Sherpa.

Hi, I own a 1955 Magnette ZA which at some point in it's life, prior to me purchasing it, has had a different engine fitted. I have tried, unsuccessfully, to find out what vehicle the engine came from and what is its approximate age. None of the engine codes that I have found match up with the code on my engine, which is 16U451BL7689. All I have managed to find out is that the engine appears to be a 1622cc and is listed as such on the registration document.
Can anyone help please? :unsure:
