Present in the SEAT range between 1969 and 1984, the 1430 engine showed enormous versatility. In addition, it served to launch Formula 1430, the best pilot school in our country.
FORMULA 1430: The 1430 engine was the basis on which the so-called National Formula was articulated, later known as Formula 1430. It was the first Spanish single-seater championship. The gearbox was that of the SEAT 600, leaving the rest of the component in charge of the manufacturers, among which Selex -the great dominator-, Lince, Cordobán, Hispakart or Etco stood out.
I am lucky to have turned my passion into my way of earning a living. Since I left the Faculty of Information Sciences in 2004, I have been professionally dedicated to motor journalism. I started in the magazine Coches Clásicos in its beginnings, going on to direct it in 2012, the year in which I also took charge of Clásicos Populares. Throughout these almost two decades of my professional career, I have worked in all types of media, including magazines, radio, the web and television, always in formats and programs related to the engine. I am crazy about the classics, Formula 1 and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
