Need to contact with the orange Can-am owner that I saw at Donington this year. It has a Knight engine with Kingsler F.I.. I would like to discuss about that powerplant.
Thanks

How many different engines do you need to try?

If its the one I'm thinking of then its a very expensive engine (£30k or so) and produces serious power. Did the kinsler trumpets poke out of the body?

But from what I can gather the owner likes to keep himself to himself.....

Well, I only wish to ask him about the cooling system because I have taken pictures and was looking around the engine and I can´t see the thermostat anywhere....!

Could be a remote one...... if the inlet manifold's thermostat positions it too high the header tank may need to be above the rear bodywork... thus it may have needed a remote one.

Not seen the car so only guessing.
