CLB engine "WT" Suffix
« on: January 11, 2023, 09:30:08 »
Hello!
anybody happen to know what the suffix WT means in a CLB engine number?
on the engine block there is also a two digit number stamped in additon to the engine number.
Thanks!
Eddie

Eddie,
When this subject came up before the suggested answer was that WT might stand for Wellworthy which was a piston manufacturer originally based in Lymington. The company merged with other British piston/ piston ring specialists into  Associated Engineering Group in the late 1940s.

Regards,
Ben
