Default Milledge motor?
I saw this car on ebay - pretty sure the skull and crossbones sticker mean something?

Seems to have an interesting background. Wonder what change to the gearing was made? Shame to get this far and stop.

Yes the skull and crossbones sticker is Michael Mount's.... Great engine builder!! He built my turbo motor.

Could be IMA Intake.

Yep, definitely an IMA intake. Not cheap.
Plenty of money has gone into this car but it's a weird build. It's still a bit too street for a dry sump system for example....
