i have a bunch of lmr's.
haven't run them as i have been running the mccullochs mostly.
four i bought from one fellow who i haven't talked to in years.
he was a good driver his wife better and they had a guy too.
he gave me the build notes direct from margays engine builder.
using those notes he built a fast motor.
he told me his lmr set up was undefeated an entire season till they blew the head off it in new hampshire.
they were excellent design with crappy casting for sure.
i'd love to see margay repop a few of these a whole sustainable vintage class could be built.
i've been told running them on gas tends to stick them they heat up pretty fast but randomly.
with better quality casting i'd bet they'd be pretty bullet proof .
