Dear Sirs,

Many things are getting confused here. The 1884cc (single chain) type 1 "1900" factory hot rod engine appeared in the 4-cylinder Disco and in the Corto Gara (1952) with special tuning and essentially identical weber DCO3's and pictured airbox; the 1975cc block (a different single-chain block) type 2 "1900" , overbored for the Sportiva with DCO3's and pictured airbox; the type 3 "1900" 1975cc two-chain engine and ; and the 102 "2000 iron block" another new block with a totally differing cam & tappet design and head also, and the block derived from the late type 3 "1900".

Keep the revs up,
Laurence
