Yes I thought that just wondered if there was anything nicer inside the motor seems a lot of work for it to be standard motor ?
I've not delved inside it yet. I suspect the cam might be uprated, but I would expect everything else is standard. It will have been used in a one-chassis/one-make single seater race series I guess, where the rules were strict, but dry-sumping was essential for cornering speeds and ground clearance.

formula vauxhall junior??
re the sequential thing... it wouldn't be massively difficult to make a seq. shifter box.
Yes, that's a FVJ engine. Bog standard Nova GSI engine with a dry sump kit fitted, and as you say Colin, worth it for the dry sump kit alone. I use one of the timing toothed wheels on my GSI engine.
They were all built by Scholar engines, who should still have spares on the shelf.
I saw this on ebay also, did find it very interesting, forgot to watch it though, but 200 quid aint bad at all..
