Hi Don!
All I know about the Lawrence tuned engine is that it is a 4 banger. Do You know what went in to it. Reason: I am buying a Turner MK.3 (ford) with a bum engine. If I can use the one from the Marcos, it will help getting things done. The old Ford engines are hard to come by now a days!

Welcome Mike!
Lee Brinkley in England has an original Lawrence-tuned car but has replaced the engine with a 1600 Crossflow. Mike Denman (US) has a highly tuned B20 (maybe B-22 now?) in his 1966 Marcos.
Lots of other folks with plenty of info and advice on the list. If you haven't already, check out the Marcos Maniacs site "registry" at www.greyraven.tzo.com/marcosmaniacs Love to have your car on it! Contact Jeff.

Hi!

My name is Michael Hullevad, I live in Horsens, Denmark. I have just bought a Marcos 1600GT(with 1650 Chris Lawrence engine) frame number 5183, previously owned by Pete Buckle, Calne, GB.
It is to get a Volvo b20 engine (steel crank and all) producing 185hp, I think it will be great fun!

; ; Regards

; ; Mike
