Trigger:
Let me enlighten you on engines and the numbers. Yes, all engines are numbered in sequence starting with number 1, the first 50 would of been test engines (Prototype) and run on bench tests at QC. Because these engines have been run, they would of never been fitted to any vehicle that would of been sold  and would have been analysed and then scraped after all tests have been carried out. Honda at this time were trying to get bigger in the world market and could not risk any mistakes.
Once a production line is up and running QC would of pulled 1 in 50 engines for testing .
Many of the Prototype CX500 sandcast engines are in the UK because, Honda had them tested by Associated Octel.
