This one looks a little odd.
That's because someone squeezed it into an Elva Sports Racing chassis that used to run with a Lotus twin cam engine.

What carbs are those?

I have never seen such large secondaries/velocity stacks whatever those are.

Care to share any other engine specs? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

I would love to know what it takes to get 200 HP out of a 2L type IV.

I was commenting on another thread recently with Jake about breaking the 100 hp/L mark, and I didnt think it could be done with a type IV.
Greater than 200hp in a type IV, sure, but I assumed huge displacement.
