Heck at least they had both Championships in '62 with Graham (V-8). 
The H-16 had one win in the back of Jimmy's Lotus at Watkins Glen in '66.

Sorry Jim, you are completely right, it was the H-16, that was tragically chosen instead of the V12 that was later adopted. (Have no idea why I put V16??!!)
