Hellem should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I used was the weekend mechanic for Ian Tee. The engine was a 2 litre (Tasman) V8 BRM with side exhaust system. This engine was very difficult to get running on all 8, too rich, too lean, faulty ignition pickup,......Things got better once the improvised exhaust system was changed for a proper tubular system.
The car was delivered with the then required full windscreen. Rapidly changed for the small screen. Later that year the tail was cut short as the lugage box requirements were dropped.
The works car used a BRM Tasman engine with central exhaust.
