[Fot] 1300/1500

[Barr, Scott]

There are an awful lot of people doing some pretty amazing things with
the 1500.  Those of you who were at the FOT event at Hallett a couple of
years ago care to comment?  I seem to remember an awful lot of people
being very impressed with the performance of the Jerry Barker and Chuck
Gee 1500-powered cars.

Dan, the very best engine that Standard-Triumph ever built for the
Spitfire was the 1300 that was used only in the Mk 3. The MkIV 1300
wasn't as good - but reasonable - and the 1500 was a complete waste of
space.
