The Taifun Sprint was a very light weight and powerful engine in its days.
The Mk I had an aluminum cast cylinder head that was changed later to a bar stock machined head. The reason was that the glow plug taps often stripped in the cast cylinder head.
Hans Hoernlein manufactured 4 different Sprint model Glow engines.
