Hi

New to this forum

I have a 1989 Van diemen multisport built specifically for a race series in the late 80s fitted with a CVH 1.6 MFI engine

The engine is loacted in the rear of the car canted forward to lower the centre of gravity

The engine is semi dry sumped

Car weights about 700Kg with driver

Can any one guide me to what engine it is from as we have no manuals etc to follow and have no is idea how the fuel system works etc
some of the electrical sensors are in place but apart from oil pressure , temp and revs we do not require anything else

We only need the engine section of possible the haynes manual but which one

 

Pics would help but being a mfi I would suggest its either an xr3i engine or rs1600i

 

Hi

I do not seem to be able to insert a picture

E mail me and I pig a picture over
Thanks

 

Sounds interesting, the engine will be the same as in an Orion 1.6i/Xr3i Or an RS1600i... The Xr3i engine is much more common and not wildly different from the Rs1600i engine.
Try and get some pics up! Be good to see!
