Looking good in the 2.5L hemi. You supposed it's a scaled down aircraft engine?

Re: Driving the Tatra at the Rally for The Lane
No, it's their own unique design, developed in the 30's, and used in various forms right up until they went out of business in the late 90's. One of the cars driven on the rally was a 1947 version, and one was a 96', and while the new engine had overhead cams and fuel injection (and 4.3 L vs the 2.5 in this car) it was still basically the same design.
This is the one used in the earliest cars...
This is the one used in the car I drove....note two carbs instead of just one...
And this is what's in the later cars....

Here's a website that shows the lineage of the cars from the beginning, or you could go to the Lane Museum, and see them for yourself!
