Oh you're a gem -- I've been looking for these for ages! Cheers!

Just looked up the 1997 regulations and I really wish today it were like this:
ARTICLE 5 : ENGINE

5.1) Types of engine permitted

Only 4-stroke engines with reciprocating pistons are permitted.

5.2) Maximum capacity

Engine capacity must not exceed 3000cc.

5.3) Supercharging

Supercharging is forbidden.

5.4) Number and type of cylinders

The maximum number of cylinders is 12 and the normal section of each cylinder must be circular.

5.5) Number of valves

Engines may have no more than 5 valves per cylinder.

5.6) Temperature and pressure of the charge

5.6.1 - Any device, system, procedure, construction or design the purpose and/or effect of which is any decrease whatsoever of the temperature of the intake air and/or of the charge (air and/or fuel) of the engine is forbidden.

5.6.2 - Internal and/or external spraying of water or any substance whatsoever is forbidden (other than fuel for the normal purpose of combustion in the engine).

5.7) Exhaust system

Variable geometric length exhaust systems are forbidden.

5.8) Engine materials

THANK YOU MARIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is fantastic.

Wish they had regulations from the mid-1970s through the 1980s too.
