Hello,
One of my crank shafts has the standard crank code of 2A717. The other has AT38/A/X
Any idea what this means? Both blocks are 948 - one is standard a35. The other may be from a Sprite or a bitsa as it had 997 Cooper Cam, 997 Cooper conrods and a nice small bore head.
Either crank will need grinding so wondering if the 2nd one is special.
Google has failed me so far so wondering if any of you have a good old parts book somewhere that can translate what this is.
Thanks, Andrew.

Re: Crankshaft codes
I've notice that I was reading the code from a different location to the standard crank.
The standard crank has a different number again here.
The non-standard crank part number is all but missing apart from a 7 and a 6 (The 7 is very faint so could potentially be a 9 followed by a 2 if read the other way up)

Not something like 2A828? That's Moss's part no for the MG 948 crank and seems to tie up with MG Experience forum.

Re: Crankshaft codes
Thanks Gazza but no. I don't think so. I did the pencil rubbing technique which revealed a 2.
So it is 2 9 (Unless they do lower case g) followed by a triangle with something inside it!
