A curious engine. This is the reed version, but the rotary was an excellent engine developped by Faluga, one of the top guys at tuning 2 cycle kart engines at the time.

This is of course the most special engine in my collection.

Originally mounted on the chassis made by the same factory Spanush Arisco factory. Factory color was yellow but I changed mine to red. When I got this kart body was yellow, Arisco colors, and I 1st tried it with the rotary version of the engine, the Arisco Terminator. Of course #10

Very cool... Did they continue with the development of the twin spark head? Have you got any pictures of the combustion chamber?
 
I don't have pics right know. In fact by the end they seemed to stay with single spark plug traditional heads before they closed the factory. I got mine with the twin spark head but a single cap coil.
would love to find the original one, though it didn't seem to works as good as intended, so I used the single one but if there was a restart during my ICA Direct Drive seasons I would change cap to the secong clean spark plug.
