The answer to the question is.....
its a Butterworth swing valve inlet 500.
Archie Butterworth raced cars and built engines in the 50's. This engine belongs to Miles, his nephew (who is a good friend of Paul, my friend) . His engins were usually 1500 or 2000cc but this was Archies test bed engine.
I Think that makes it pretty damn special.
THANKS TO PAUL FRO THE INFO AND PICTURES.
