Engine ID Help
Hey guys, just trying to identify for sure the engine that is in this 1990 Rover Mini. It has the following engine ID on it:


Engine ID Tag

Also here is a picture of the engine, maybe it will also have clues to be easily identifiable, thanks again:



I was told it was a 1300 but I believe it is just a regular 1275

I think you're right, it appears to be a 1275.
