Not much use if you're planning running it on LPG Ian !

Simon,
WOULD it run on LPG? Would the bottom end of 1098 stand up to all that extra power.

i really dont know? i imagine it could run LPG, cant see why not, in a mild tune i guess a 1098 would be ok.

Not much point going to all this trouble, and then just doing a 'mild' tune ! Unwise to take 1098 engine much over 70/80 bhp - unless you get the later Spridget 1098 with the S size crankshaft and rods, which could take a bit more. But it's still a long stroke engine - not keen on revving.
