Thanked 27 Times in 14 PostsI'm not sure I can lay my hands on any Saturn 5 engines. All that liquid fuel guffage is a right faff! Solid fuel engines are more convenient, but not throttleable, of course - but once you're up to speed, who needs to throttle back? Originally Posted by JamesT5

I do know a man who had a couple of Sidewinder solids going spare, but I'm not sure if he's still got them....
The Sidewinder clocks Mach 2.5 - fast enough?
1994 850 GL manual, estate - worn out
1997 V70 T5 auto, estate - engine blown
1994 850 T5 auto, estate - stolen, used in ram-raid, then burnt-out
Now driving 1996 850R auto, estate
