Can anyone identify pistons with the markings ID19 W45 STD?  Obviously
standard bore size, but what bore, and what engine? They are flat top, some
way down the bore at TDC, and it's believed to be a 1275 block. I'm trying
to help a friend identify the engine he has before he decides what to do
with it. I've not seen it yet, and should be able to tell, when I do, but
wondered if the markings mean anything to anyone.  Not found the answer
through Google either yet. =8¬}
Cheers,
Paul

Posting the engine number, if it has one, will help alot more.

Does it have one or two core plugs on the side of the block where the engine
steady bar bolts up?  Does it have an engine breather on the flywheel
housing, assuming you've got that.

If its a yellow block it'll prob be an A+ 998 lump, red will prob be an A+
1275 block, black is *prob* an a series 998/1098 block - but only because
there are more of those about.  Someone who *reeeeally* knows their engine
blocks will prob be along soon with more/better info.

Cheers, Kris. All good pointers. I'll pass this on to the owner.

if at the back of the block has 2 removable covers then its a 998 or 1100
