      The twin-cam rally car was an RS1800 Twin Cam. A close friend of
      mine has one.  It finished 2d in class, 4th overall in the 71 or 72
      East Africa Safari rally.  It is currently in storage waiting for
      time and money to be restored. (not a 4 valve motor)

   I think twincam "RS" are all BDAed, thus 4valeved.
   "Twincam"s are all powered by Lotus Twin Cam(2valve).
   However it is very difficult to bore up 116E blocks to 1800cc,,,

RS1800 is bore downed RS2000, isn't it?
