You've got to be careful when you throw around those numbers!
Someone might get hurt!

I did some calculations, I think it should be good for about 3 x 10^8 meters per second.

That Montego sounds like a bargain! Space, economy AND style!

Yeah, they just use the common 1275 head.
The 1100 auto uses the Sprite head to raise the power a bit so that the auto can take it away again.

Well that explains the power difference between a normal 1100 and the auto...

Do you have a Montego too?
