Not sure what you mean by mags but the engine has a slightly unusual layout. The exhaust ports are within the Vee (were you would expect to find intake ports normally) and sticking out between the cam shafts on each bank appear to be individual throttle bodies, getting to the spark plugs must be a bit of a pain!

Those are made here (Normal, IL). I see them all over the place. They are pretty big and bloated now. Heck, the Spyder weighs in close to 4,000 lbs. They are all looks and straight-line speed now. They are NOT the agile little cars that the 1st and 2nd generation Eclipses were...

looks like Jack Brabham in the background, so that would be the Repco V8 that they used in F1--I recall it was single cam per bank.but that one is obviously a twin cam.
Brabham Repco first V8 was Buick block based. Edit:- I was a young ,would-be petrol head in Melbourne Australia, back then. I did a bit of research and came up with this---- so my memory is still OK! http://forums.autosport.com/showthread.php?threadid=65534 Last edited by Bob Goding; 01-27-2008 at 08:55 PM.. |
