For sale: A gas engine with a water heat exchanger unit built onto the exhaust port, mounted on a test stand.

I don't know much about the engine other than it is a 1.3i DOHC which the engine code identifies as being from a Nissan Micra or possibly a Nissan Cube and has done low hours.

The base would make an ideal test bed. It appears well made.

Thanks for that link. Very interesting read! Unfortunately you have made me start wanting another mini

I got the Suzuki engine for a jets ski to speedboat project.
I did a bit of research, which showed the Suzuki G13BB to be a good for light aircraft as well.

It seems some of these little Japanese engines from uninspiring cars can be little Gems.

I looks like your Nissan 1.3 could well be one of them.

Is there a rear wheel drive gear box available for it. Would make a great light weight Seven as well.

Did Caterham not do a 1.3 version.
