Hi Hal,
; I have a 1966 Marcos with a 1800 cc engine
(chassis #4079).... the engine in the 1800 cc was a Volvo while
the smaller engines were Ford. Email me a picture of the engine sub frame and I
will compare it to mine and see how difficult or easy the conversion would be
(assuming you want to switch to a Volvo engine).

The rules commitee dosnt know a lot about the Marcos and I am having trouble getting a engine ruling. Now in 1966 (chasis 5006} my car came with a 1500cc moter. I have brochure stating that a 1600 was also avail. is this true? While I was on the Unoficial Marcos home page it looked as though in '65 ther was an 1800 avail. am I reading this correct? If so are the engines interchagable between the two years? I was hopping to be able to race this year but having an uncommon car is difficult for the common race official. Any help is greatly apreciated.Hal#5006
