Regarding the BDR, my listing says "1983 1601cc 120 Bhp BDA Kits for Caterham Super Sevens, also 1.7 litre and 150-170 Bhp." Displacement problems if applied to atlantics?
While we are at it, my listing also shows a displacement of 1601cc for the BDA. Would this not exclude the "BDA" from the running? Even though any BD series engine is allowed it must be limited to 1600cc, no? The only BD series engines shown with 1600cc or less are the BDD, BDM, BDN, BDH & BDJ.
As far as a big bore/short stroke version in the BD series I only find the BDH (1300cc) and the BDJ (1098cc) as having a short stroke configuration. Doesn't mean there wasn't a local British version floating about.
The issue is being addressed and the suggestion has been put forth to adopt the engine rules as stated for the CSR in this instance. It would seem to be silly to apply the homologation issue to just one of the BD series engines. Just as silly as saying a BDA or BDR base can not be used as they came with 1601cc.
