Class 3C Engines

Is the Etec 200HO eligible to run in 3C?

Thanks for the link
It does mention the Etec 150/175/200 but doesn't specify if they are the HO.
Does anyone run anything other than the XR2?
We don't run this class in Aus at the moment but it sounds like what we need.
The promo for the world's in France next year has also sparked my interest

As far as i know, XR2s are no loger allowed in 3C.(Internationally).Most use Merc Optimax XS200, and there are one or two Yam 200s in Scandinavia that ran in the Europeans in Finland recently. Did good too.

No the are not!
The the max cubic cap in 3C is 3000cc.
The 200 ho is 3300 something.
The usual 2.6l E-tec 200hp is eligible for 3C.
