Engine no on both starts with a H followed by 5 or 6 numbers. The part no on the head of one starts with 742, that ones in a HT the other i didn't catch but was in a HR. Any one know these motors origins and more importantly what is their capacity? Also, why do i need to re enter all my details etc when i don't visit this site for more than a few weeks? Security? Bit of a pain being anonymous... thanks

Other than the bore size and the HP letters, the engines were identical
