recently bought a job lot, which includes a few SX200 engines.

some start with a 2, some 8 and one 5
does this tell me whether they are SX, or GP, and Italian, or Spanish
any other castings differences to tell...?

thanks

"8" is Innocenti
"5" is Spanish
"2" don't know- GP??

Also check the strengthening castings on the lugs- Indian ones heve more.

If they are original factory stamped then:
Engine number starting with a 2 will be an Italian GP/DL 200
With a 8 will be Italian SX200.
With a 5 will be a Spanish Jet 200.
Hope that helps
