We didn’t get the OK from the BRDC until early November, and after the initial design work, we received the chassis after Christmas.<BR> <BR> “Jeff Bull Race Engines are building the 6.3 Chevrolet, which is specifically for this car. It will have masses of torque, but won’t be particularly high revving. 6300 will be enough. Jeff Bull is well known for his drag racing engines.”<BR> <BR> Ted Marlow’s Ultima company have given this project their full blessing.<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>
