basic info 2.4 to 2.6 liter flat normally asperated. 900hp with 200 to 250 torque. Quote was $65,000 t0 $90,000 aud would use production based pistons and cyls so should be easily rebuild and low maintenance. 2 stroke design would it be illegal for track? Technically illegal for street but that could change. Sorry Racers but I am bored and Happy Holidays

Orbital Engine company out of Australia was getting high horsepower and incredible fuel efficiency back in the 80's out of small displacement engines. The problem with 2 strokes as we all know is the noise and emissions. They could never get past the U.S. emissions standards for any of their products to be sold here but as far as I knew they were still trying! Here is a brief history of their company
