Thats just the stock LR lettering which means when they top-hated the motor they didn't have to mill much off the block face the 500's I would estimate are in the mid to high 10's CR wise from TVR IIRC
so dont panic
Thanks Simon
so dont panic My arce fell out when I looked at the stamps
The TVR engine number is usually stamped on the face of the block.
At the time Morgan had an 'exclusive' deal with Rover for the engine but as demand picked up significantly with the Griffith and Chimaera and Rover were struggling they started to supply engines to TVR as well but they'd always been initially manufactured for Morgan under the deal, hence the Morgan identifier.

I'm not saying what he did is right I'm just saying no one was hurt etc so perhaps on that day in those circumstances it was the correct outcome

Perhaps, given the time of this post, a few too many beverages had been consumed and the wrong topic became the target of this quite sensible sounding response?
There, but for the grace of God, go I.
