the simple answer is "yes".  the tanus / vada engine was used by saab
starting
in 1967.   it was also used as a ford stationary compressor motor and some
other industrial aplications in north america.  it first came in a 1500cc
design and later was 1700cc's.  personally , i've never owned one only two
stroke 3 cylinder saabs as far as saab aplications go.

I've been day-dreaming gain...
When I was working in RSA my colleague Tim had a '68(?) Ford Taunus that had
a
V4 engine.
Did that engine ever make it to the USA?
Would make an ideal transplant for a spridget.
