12HA83 looks to be an MG metro engine with high compressions not a GT engine. The easy way to tell if its a GT engine is if the head has a by pass hose on it, the later A+ did not.

can you get your cylinder head converted? to lead free?

You can but I've been quoted £160-£250 to have it done, it depends on how much running you're doing, I'm sticking with additive at the moment & currently our local sainsbury's still sells LRP.

additive is better than LRP but don't mix em.
