I think that this article needs, to say the least, some careful checking of source material. I suggest that the 4.2 litre engine was not a flat-16 and had nothing to do with Coventry-Climax, it was an outgrowth of the BRM 3-litre H-16. The 1.5 litre engine had nothing to do with the 4.2 litre engine; but at least it was a flat-16 and it was made by Coventry-Climax.

I've removed it. In the future, you can make these sorts of edits yourself and provide an edit summary to explain your reasoning. TomTheHand 19:56, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
