The y type as pictured here
Any condition
Have you considered commissioning one from G? :)

I thought that manufacture stopped when Mr G died. Are the motors still being made?
You should check on this site.......

Different G. :)
One of the blokes at Trinity refurbishes CO
2 motors and has been known to make his own, including copies of Gasparin's, and a 3 cylinder Y sounds, to me, like the sort of challenge he'd be up for.
Different Gs, as Lurk already replied.
Gerard is the Trinity guy an quite a craftsman. Indeed a challenge he will most probably accept and succeed at.
As for Gasparin motors, they are still being made by Jiri, at the link Spiros posted.
I have not asked G but I will ...if he hasn't read this already ;)
Quite a task with a tricky multi-cylinder crank??? It could be made using existing cylinders and top end from the GM300 but that's a lot of work
I have discovered these are still available from http://www.old-engine-model.com/en/gasparin-co2-engines/ (http://www.old-engine-model.com/en/gasparin-co2-engines/) so I have ordered one
