Recently Bought a 69 TVR Vixen S-2.Original Engine was removed and replaced with what I believe is a Ford Pinto Engine.It's a 4cyl SOHC.After much research,and Help from the TVR Forums.The more I discovered the more I am Confused...It was suggested that I try this Site.
The Block is Stamped:

Z1030
1.6
HM 6015 A-A

The Distributor is (Ford) Motorcraft and it has a 2bbl Weber Carb manual choke...
Fireing Order is 1 2 4 3 and rotates CC

One website states it's a 2000cc.Why then is it stamped 1.6 ? and another website says A-A means it's a 1300cc.Most casting numbers for 1600cc start with 711 I believe.The distributor points for it are from a 2.3 ? I know the block was used in many configurations,I just want to know what engine I have...One Website with Info:
