Heralds, early ones including the coupe were 948cc as was the Standard Ten, The rest of the heralds with the original bonnet were 1147cc and the ones with the single headlight version of the vittesse bonnet were 1296cc.

The MK4 spit 1500 engine fits straight in all models for a chap upgrade.

I had a 'fleet' of Triumph Heralds in the early 80's ('cos they were cheap) they had 1147cc engines as did the Spitfire.

google says spitfire although I always thought they were 24 litre merlin engines...
