It's not very often that historic race cars go up for sale, let alone ones that have documented podium finishes at some of the world's most iconic races.
This 1971 Lola T212 is one such race car with, among its many race wins, a second-place finish at the 1972 24 Hours of Daytona. …
Question?? What motor was used in 1972?? And who built the BDG that's in her now??
In reply to sir_mike :
The listing doesn't specifically say what engine was in the car in 1972 besides mentioning that the T212 was "typically outfitted with the Ford Cosworth FVC engine."
To answer your second question, I also pulled this from the listing: "Currently the car is outfitted with a two-liter BDG engine with an aluminum nikasil block built by S. Jennings. The build for this motor included the very best available including a round tooth cam drive, light flywheel, rods, and crank, a billet distributor with MSD ignition, and a Jennings billet engine adaptor."
I hope that helps.
