I was a bit out toi - I think the gearbox must be a solid lump of steel!I was miles out in my guestimate of the weight of that engine!
engine what roughly 300/350kg? its a 6pot but yeah that gearbox is nutsI was a bit out toi - I think the gearbox must be a solid lump of steel!
I see that Ford Engine had a MINIMEC Inj Pump on it, strangely so did my Matbro Telestar but it was a 4pot Ford Industrial Engine as i recall & all red painted.
Poss similar engine family
I thought 850 kg so a bit out , what going to replace it ? it will be very interesting to see how it turns out , they dont seem to do stuff by halves but its far to say they are starting out with shed on that project
Yeah, i think they're trying to do something he wasn't back thenAlec Issigonis made a fair job of the design, for it's day.
