Does anybody know if the tuning firm Schnitzer ever made a 1400 cc Turbo engine for use in Formula 2? I recently came across a reference to this, when I was looking in relation to BMW touring car racing in the seventies, but had never heard of it before and cannot find any other info on it.
Can anybody help? ------------- Gus van Riessen. A Batmobile is for life... |

Not sure if it was Schnitzer but there was a 1500hp engine used for racing, based on the M10 block. -------------

Thanks for your reply, but I believe that that was the Brabham BMW Formula 1 car in the 1980's, that was 1500 cc with 1500 bhp. I get the impression that this Schnitzer one is much earlier. Mid- to late 70's. Any idea's anybody? ------------- Gus van Riessen. A Batmobile is for life... |
