Thats odd because I thought the original car (no 0000) had an engine originally built by MSD with input from cosworth engine to which SRE then built the race engines from the blueprints prepared out of that project. Never mind, must have read a wrong web page somewhere.

0000 the car above P902 RB* went through a hundred different setups and specs before being finalised. For example you will see it running Alcon brakes in the first Press Pics but it was later decided that AP 4 pots would be used instead.

MSD, VX in Luton ( who owned the car) and Swindon Race engines all had a hand in the cars engine although only the upgraded omega 3 litre cams ever filtered down onto the remaining road going cars.

MSD actualy built a couple of dealer specials too fitting a reworked 3 lire unit instead of the 2.5 V6.

That'll be Olly Hewitt's car then.

Courtenay lightened flywheel, the AP pots running greenstuff pads, the combined Irmscher and Steinmetz bodykit etc - putting out 195bhp.

It has Koni suspension though, not Pilbeam. A change since it was sold perhaps.
