I'm surprised any of those old Pug touring car motors survived, they always ran without filters! Sand and gravel in at the front, sand and gravel blowing out the tailpipe at the back!

the real left hooker you mean? cant believe they never allowed it over here. Best bit about the 309 is that it was the simplest of transplants, if you knew what you were doing you could have engines swapped over and running in a morning.
If you look at the engine spec of the mi16 it was emense for the time, HUGE vlaves, well designed intake and exhaust and light!! I bought a 405 mi16 for 70 quid, would do over 45mph, engine out, stripped and rebuilt, completely standard and pushed out 165 on the dyno, great lil engine!Comment
