Interesting!
A Swede was national Rallycross champion around 1974 maybe 1975 with a NA engine of this style.
If I recall right his name is Mikael Nordström. He then built the car both turbo and 4WD.
This is the source of why we/I built my engine in 1977.
I just get the feeling that someone in Austria or Germany might have done it earlier than 1976.

Tried to Google some information but came up short.
Same years around 1975, Karl Erik Nilsson I think his name was, built another fantastic T1 with Ford BDA heads. But that is another story.....back a couple of pages on this thread.

Never bolted slicks on it, so it spins the tires real well at Irwindale  --- But it does very nicely around the cones at your neighbor parking lot........

You don't need slicks to go quick if its making any power you will make up for the bad start. sounds like fun driving round cones though!
