The Imp Engine is a very smooth lightweight unit. The chassis needs to be made with this in mind, and Mikes are !

Ed - it may well be spoken for, but I believe it speaks in husky Southern tones!

Reference to Den - the rules state engine size is limited to 1300 cc. If you fitted two standard 875cc Imps (under 1300) you would be running at 1750cc - I've checked with the eligibility bloke and he agrees - hence the extra tubes required :lol: :lol: :lol:
