1 1/2" Sports conrods

I'm moving garages at the moment and tonight just found 4 x 1 1/2" conrods that i'd forgotten about. Not a set, only 2 have engine numbers, 141335 and 205223, they have slight detail differences, especially about the small end. Any ideas?

I would think the later rods could well be Speedy or Nippy. I think Nippy/Speedy rods were significantly lighter - or was it heavier?
According to my notes, the next engine to 141335 was an unblown 10 stud Ulster which David Howe owned at one time. Over to you, David!

Stuart,
You are quite correct I sold engine no 141336 an u/b 10 stud engine in 1976 to a friend of Tony Johns in Australia in RH3901.Have no record of what 141335 was but was obviously a 10 stud engine, will add no to my lists.141336 came from John Ward.See our previous corr Stuart Regards DAvid
