As the plate on the engine is already there I will use FBB 052. as the engine No.

Using RTC2459R without 00822T would be pointless.
I'd need to use complete from R to T otherwise there would be many cars with RTC2459R.
OR I use ' FBB 052' as my unique engine number
Which one should I use. ?

Thanks Colin, so basically I can regard the ' RTC2459R00822T ' as THE engine number. ?
The remaining FBB 052 as the engineers code. ?
Is there any way I can find out when this was rebuilt ?
Cheers

Cheers .... should mention that the engine is well balanced and loads of poke. I am assuming it is a Spitfire engine . 53,000 miles and all cylinders read the same high compression. Ive had it for 11 years
Thanks for your input. ☺👍

Thanks Johny, so the actual engine number is still a mystery ?
Unless I trace it back some how to the original reg which I think was YUD 394 R which was scraped some years ago I believe.

Thanks Kevin .... any idea what the FBB 052 means. ?

I have a tag on the top rear of my 1977 Spitfire 1500 engine. It reads : RTC2459R00822T and below it is : FBB 052
There is NO engine number in usual place.
does anyone know what this is ?

Thanks to everyone for their input !
I have decided to use the LONG number RTC2459R00822T as this makes the most sense.
THANKS FOR THE EDUCATION 😊
