Engine number

Hi, That is an unusual engine number. Anything is possible but I believe a '66 Series 1 should have an engine number starting with "7E". The number for your engine should be near the oil filter, on the block above the filter housing. And if you have the original data plate it should also be stamped there. Do you know the car number, that would also help track down model year and build dates.
cheers,
Richard

Dear Richard thank you for your response. I may have read the numbers wrong. I believe the heads were replaced before my ownership they read 7E53275-9. I have the Jaguar Heritage Trust document. Chassis number matches Build date December 21 1965. I dont know if this helps. Thank you Don Calabro

Unless modified or replaced, the engine number should be stamped in two locations: On cylinder block right-hand side on horizontal flange above where oil filter is fitted, and on cylinder head in vertical surface at the front of the central valley above the forward spark plug. Cheers Richard.
