As I work my way through the process of putting a proper Viton rear crank seal in my FPF #1036, at the same time doing main, crank and cam bearings I wondered how many FPF engines remain in Australia. I think the total worldwide build of these engines was around 270 units. I know of three here in South Australia (two Coopers and my Lotus 12 ) maybe others?. The end objective might be to develop a self help group? My guess there may be 25 to 30 engines here?

You're not counting reproductions, are you?

 

And the several that where built by Repco during the sixties?
