Hi my mate just text me and said he found out it was used for f2 stock cars, would that make it something special. Cheers

Definitely......if the car it was fitted to usually won.....

But If it always came last........

 

But seriously, F2 stockcars ran to a rigid set of rules including engine spec.

It may well be a bit warm as follows.....

Seems they have to be standard other than camshaft and lightened flywheels.

Indeed, they are nothing special apart from cam which tends to be an interesting mix of lift and duration specifically designed for short oval.

A mate put one in his 2b and it was good, eventually twisted the crappy 2b propshaft.

He was in the oval racing fraternity.

Any oval racing engine being sold without provenance will be shagged.
