There has been a great program on Fox Sports the last few days covering the career of Grahaem Hill. The BRM engineer who designed the X - 16 makes several appaerances. Very interesting.

Thanks Trev -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, 15 November 2001 13:57 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Boost vs Cubic inches BRM built a supercharged 1488cc V16 for F1 which could put out about 480bhp at 12,000 rpm and this was back in the 1950's. It was like two V8's, one on top of the other with a common crank. The V is very shallow and it almost looks like boxer. The pistons must have been tiny!
