Formula Ford 2000
Take a look at this Reynard Formula Ford 2000.
http://www.racecarsdirect.com/cars/d...id=22852&cat=0 Forgive my ignorance, but what engine is in this? I thought they used a modified Kent engine, but the INLET and EXHAUST Manifolds are the wrong way around.. It looks a lot like a Kent. Is it the Pinto?????? Cheers anyone. |

Like John says.
If your thinking about buying it be aware that it isnt eligible for URS FF2000 because thats pre82. It would be eligible for Monoposto but it would be outclassed in 2000 class. I think its ok for F4 but it would be outclassed overall I dont know if there is a class that would be good for it |

Think laterally!
There are several 2.0 Pinto engined cars running in Sprints and Hillclimbs.
Terry Holmes and Graham Porrett have a 1984 Reynard in which they originally ran a 2.0 Pinto. The car now sports a 2.0 Cosworth engine minus turbo. |

Pies????????
There are only certain Pies I like.... How would I know mate. I have never had any dealings with the Pinto engine. It just seemed strange as to why the Manifolds are different to say it's the same block effectively. There is obviously a straight forward explanation for it, but I dare say your not going to give it to me are you..... Luv U 2 huns!!!!! |
