Bought a 80% done project. 1.7 engine has been rebuilt and lots of new goodies installed. However I don’t know what heads, and internals were installed. Engine has never had oil in it and looks like jewelry with dual Weber 44s, new heads and powder coated tins. I’m on a quest to learn what I can about this new engine. Other than the carbs, only other info I’ve found is a number 850910 stamped on the heads next to an intake port. Any recommendations on how to learn what I have without taking everything apart?
