Just checked the stamp on a 186 stored in the shed. Just doing some plans for a rebuild, checked the pad on the right hand engine mounting, which is stamped with 186P. Checked the manual, gave options of 186A (High Performance) & 186K (X2). Where does 186P leave me?

Hi Rowdy.
Just to clear up the 186 prefixes.
186A = 186 hi-comp (not high performance) HR
186K = 186 X2 & 186 S HR (not just X2)
186P = 186 hi-comp HK/HT/HG
186S = 186 S HK/HT/HG
186L = 186 lo-comp HK/HT/HG
Dr Terry. |
If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

Doc & Paul,
Had a HR given to me, it's sat in the Shed for 18 months, so have finally decided to have a crack at a resto. Never thought the research and planning was so involved, but I want to do it right, so thought I'd hit the books and plan

There are some ommissions and errors on that site IIRC, but most of it is correct.
