Re: Mid Engine SVX concept.
Hi All,
Have been busy on another thread, what may interest you all is that I just brought 2 of these, one may go in the mid engine just undecided. Going to be a hoot for sure. They cost me a small fortune, had to sell the wife and kids but hell its worth it. Tony

Re: Mid Engine SVX concept.
You bought two of the Subaru F1 engines? Can I have your life?

Re: Mid Engine SVX concept.
Bill there is always a bed here for you at my house.
Yes I did buy 2 engines plus all the race F1 teams spare parts. A guy in Sweden brought them from the original team. Him and I have been negotiation for about 3 years, actually started about the time I put up the first post on this project. He wants to move them and so he dropped his price, he also had a big emotional attachment to the engines so he went out of his way to make sure that I got them. Being that I am a Subaru lover, it all made sense. Over the last couple of years I have got a bunch more SVX's, have 4 of 1995, 4 of 1992 and 1 of 1993. Only 2 will be parted. 5 have rego and are used. I also have acquired about 18 extra EG33 engines for development work that I am doing as regards hi compression and compression ignition. Don't want to get bored. My plan is to sort out the complexities of the build on this chassis I have post about. When that is all sorted and I know what I am doing I will cut up a 1995 that is in mint condition to complete the job. Tony
