Hello to all, I have collected enough informacion on the locost its structure, as building them, and I believe that already I am in capacity to build one to my flavor, but now I need the great aid of all you, the great question that motor I can utilize, story with three totally different motors 1.- of 1.6 of a chevette of the Chevrolet. 2.- 1.3 of a spacio of the Fiat and 3.- a motor of a minicor. Which of the 3 motors serves me to mount it on my locost or on the contrary if these me do not serve which is the recommended by you, many thanks, they excuse my inglès be agreed that I am of Venezuela and I speak Spanish..

i have absolutely no idea about these engines or donors. Try to just post things once, in the right section, people will see it even if you only write it once.

best donors where available are cortinas and escorts, failing that sierras (mekurs are they?). or any simple car with suitable drivetrain.

is there any reason you've posted this 4 times? it's really annoying and is likely to make people NOT help you.

he did the last one 9 times, so i suppose we should be glad he restrained himself.

its also difficult to help you jorge cos the cars in venezuela are probably not well known here, different names or just different. are there any local resources available? where did you find out about the locost idea?

Bike engine, only choice, there let the debate begin............

frances barnett or bsa bantam it is then!

I was thinking more Honda Melody....

I like the way hwe posts a question then never replies after

Read that out loud with a lisp. There's no doubt, it's Chris Eubank posting in disguise!

Hmm - A Locotht!

U TAKIN THE PITH? SORT U LATER .CRITH.

¿Qué tipo de motor usted está intentando utilizar? ¿Es impulsión delantera de la rueda o impulsión de la parte posterior? Usted puede utilizar casi cualquier engine/gearbox que usted tenga gusto de usted necesidad justa de hacer ajustes. Realmente utilizaría un motor por lo menos de 1.6litres. Si usted me quisiera al email directo esto no es un problema.

Adios Amigo.

how odd, i dont speak spanish but i can read that!

what sort of blower are you using horace? just noticed your build details...

from google :



What type of motor you are trying to use? It is front impulsion of the wheel or impulsion of the later part? You can use nobody almost engine/gearbox that you have taste of you right necessity to make adjustments. He would really use a motor at least of 1.6litres. If you wanted to the direct email this to me it is not a problem.

He's not, the engine's knackered...
