I like your style Ian,
Putting the most important things in your life,
before your wife.
But it is your life.
Seems I am a poet and didn't know it.
Cheers and good luck with your lister.

Ian, I would put your engine as being sold in 1948, as I take it from " The Lister D Story" by David Edgington.

PS you don't have a spare straight crankshaft do you?

Hi all
My interpretation of the Spec 28D2H is:
28 means there have been 28 specification changes to this type of engine since first going into production.
The D is self explaining,the model type.
And the 2H = 2 up.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Cheers
Ian

Hi Ian
The best thing to do would be to email Doreen Edgington at
Ddlwfl23@aol.com
who should be able to not only date your engine but tell you to whom it was originally sold.
