Michael,
The Marcos Coupes and Spyders book says the Lawrencetune cars had
1650cc displacement, a hotter cam, and the Tecalemit Jackson fuel
injection system. Also had a Hewland 5-speed gearbox in its standard
Cortina gearbox casing. The Hewland gears did not have synchros so
shifting took a little work. Had a rev limit of 9000RPM!!
I know that Chris Lawrence also did the motors for some special
Morgans.
That's about all the info I know. I've only seen one Turner in my
life!

it will help getting things done. The old Ford engines are hard to
come by now a days!
