Well, it's an A-series at least. With the extra bitchin' Tomei ally valve cover.

Please forgive me. My brain was a bit overloaded at the time I took these pictures. I didn't check all the specs on all the engines. The other ones I did see had A12's or A12A's.
I'm going to GUESS by the 1300 on the cover and the position of the dist that it's an A12A.

Ah, so the A12A didn't come out until 1979/1980.

However, way back in the beginning they raced B110s in the TSA grand prix racing class. This was a 1300cc and under class. So they bored out the A12. This is the famous Tomei "1300" rocker cover.

Original works engine

They were not the same block as the newer A12As and newer A13s which have the distributor in the middle. This car appears to have a replacment engine, or it is a repli-car or a newer (non-works) racer perhaps made in the 1980s.
