    Im afraid so evran,its the only bloody engine thatll fit the type 9 gearbox without to much trouble,but they are pretty tuneable and i do have a set of bike carbs..........bring it on!

    Ive now got a f7p engine gathering dust which is a shame.

    So youll probably see it up on Ebay soon

    Ford engines in small/kit cars are a good way to go! at £35 you're laughing lol.
