Here's an engine you may easily recognise. Make and approximate date please.

Those sure look like carburettors from Skinners Union - more commonly known as SU's!

Well, that's it for me! Its a four cylinder somethingorother with SU carbs.

Should be easy to figure out, considering I have done all the HARD work!

Must be that there are no British that still qualify as rookies!
Should be easy for them, and not too hard for other Europeans.
Bit small (at 1087 cc) for you North Americans!

Yes it's a Riley, but a little earlier.
No change in appearance for several years, so we'll call that solved!
