They will again use the B2K / 40 Lola, which will be developed by Multimatic’s own engineers, but “we will probably not use the Nissan engine,” explains Larry Holt. The team do not have a replacement engine lined up at this stage, “although John Nicholson is my first choice for engine development.”<BR> <BR> Nicholson is known to have a suitable engine ready to drop into another 675 contender, which should see the light of day in the coming weeks.<BR> </FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
