Mike,

Get the engine #.... that'll let us out here in Cyberland id your engine.

Sprites and Spitfires and Mini's... oh my!

ps...  If MG didn't have access to the smog legal Spitfire engine... your
midget wouldn't exist.  The fastest Midget I ever saw ('77 vintage) had a
Spitfire 1300 in it......
