                NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          July 31, 1995 and 1994
                              --------------


     (1)  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. 
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.  Certain reclassifications have
been made to the fiscal year 1995 consolidated financial statements to
conform to the fiscal year 1996 presentation.  Operating results for
the three months ended July  31, 1995, are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ending April 30, 1996. 
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year
ended April 30, 1995.

     (2)  The Company currently complies with the Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 to account for income taxes. 
Under this method, the Company recognized a valuation allowance to
completely offset the net deferred tax asset.

     The current provision for taxes consists of federal and state
income tax and is comprised of the following for the three months ended
July 31, 1995:

</TABLE>

The provision for taxes for the three months ended July 31, 1995 has
been reduced by the utilization of approximately $835,000 of federal
net operating loss carryforwards.

     (3)  In September 1995, the Company's revolving line of credit
agreement with Bank of America, NT&SA was amended.  The revolving line
of credit of $8 million was extended for a twelve month period, ending
on August 31, 1997.  The interest rate on the revolving line of credit
was reduced to the Bank of America Reference Rate (8.75% at July 31,
1995).  The Offshore Rate, which the Company may elect to have all or
portions of the line of credit bear interest at, was changed from a
calculated rate to LIBOR plus 1.5%.  The calculated rate at July 31,
1995 was 9% compared to the amended LIBOR based rate which would have
been 7.875% at July 31, 1995.  In addition, certain financial reporting
requirements and financial covenants have been amended.

</TABLE>
 
     Motor vehicle product sales for the three months ended July 31,
1995, decreased by approximately 5% as compared to the same period in
the prior fiscal year.  The decrease in motor vehicle product sales was
primarily attributed to lower shipments to international markets and to
a domestic original equipment truck manufacturer.   During the three
months ended July 31, 1995, sales of the Company's products for
forklifts and other material handling equipment increased by
approximately 47% as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal
year.  This increase was primarily attributed to sustained demand for
new forklifts.  Management believes that the demand in product sales
for fiscal year 1996 will be higher as compared to the levels realized
during fiscal year 1995.

     In August 1995, the Company entered into a two year contract with
General Motors Corporation (GM) to design, manufacture and assemble
compressed natural gas fuel delivery systems for a 1997 and 1998 model
year car and truck platform in compliance with GM's specifications. 
These vehicles will meet clean fuel vehicle emission standards and
applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.  The end product
will be fully warranted and serviced at General Motors dealerships. 
Production for the CNG systems are anticipated to begin with the 1997
vehicle model year.  GM can exercise an option to extend the contract
an additional two years, subject to mutually agreed upon terms and
conditions.  This contract is an extension of the initial contract

<PAGE>

signed with GM in July 1993, pursuant to which IMPCO engineered, tested
and validated CNG systems for certain 1994 and 1995 model year car and
truck platforms in compliance with GM s specifications.  GM is not
obligated to install the system on a minimum number of vehicles. 
Management anticipates that contract revenue during fiscal year 1996
will be higher than was realized during fiscal year 1995.

     The Company's cost of sales for the quarter ended July 31, 1995
was higher than for the quarter ended July 31, 1994 due to an increase
in product sales during the current period.  The Company's gross profit
margin on product sales for the quarter ended July 31, 1995, was
comparable to the same period last year.

     Research and development ("R&D") expense for the quarter ended
July 31, 1995, increased by approximately $493,000 as compared to the
quarter ended July 31, 1994.  The increase in R&D expense was primarily
for development and testing of the Company's new products, durability
testing, enhancements to products to maintain mandated emission
standards and efforts expended to obtain California s Title XIII engine
certification.  Management believes the Company's future success
depends on its ability to design, develop and market new products to
meet mandated emission standards and will therefore continue to incur
significant R&D costs.  Management anticipates R&D expense during
fiscal year 1996 will increase significantly as compared to fiscal year
1995 primarily as a result of development efforts for the GM contract
and the Company's new products and markets.

     Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense for the quarter
ended July 31, 1995, increased by approximately $227,000 as compared to
the quarter ended July 31, 1994.  The increase in SG&A expense was
primarily due to increased administrative costs and current product
support for sales and technical service.  Management anticipates that
SG&A expense during fiscal year 1996 will increase significantly as
compared to fiscal year 1995 primarily as a result of current product
support.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

     During the quarter ended July 31, 1995, cash provided by
operations, excluding working capital was approximately $1,187,000, as
compared to approximately $973,000 during the quarter ended
July 31, 1994.  During the quarter ended July 31, 1995, the Company had
a net use of working capital of approximately $125,000, as compared
approximately $593,000 during the quarter ended July 31, 1994.  The
most significant changes in the Company's current assets and
liabilities during the quarter ended July 31, 1995 were an increase in
accounts receivable which were offset by a decrease in inventory and
other current assets.  The increase in accounts receivable is primarily
attributed to increased shipments of the Company's products during the
quarter ended July 31, 1995 as compared to the quarter ended
April 30, 1995.  The decrease in inventory and other current assets was
primarily due to increased product sales and a reduction of prepaid
expenses, respectively.

<PAGE>

     Net cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended
July 31, 1995 was approximately $595,000.  Investing activities
principally included the purchase of dies, molds and patterns,
machinery and equipment, and the incurring of software production costs
which have been capitalized.  Management projects an increase in
capital expenditures during the remaining three quarters of fiscal
year 1996 as compared to the same period in fiscal year 1995, primarily
as a result of equipment enhancements and quality requirements.

     Net cash used by financing activities for the quarter ended
July 31, 1995, was approximately $483,000 as compared to net cash
provided by financing activities of approximately $885,000 for the same
period last fiscal year.  During the quarter ended July 31, 1994 the
Company's operating line of credit increased by approximately
$1,100,000 primarily due to increased obligations for material
purchases for compressed natural gas engine management systems.

      In September 1995, IMPCO amended its revolving line of credit
agreement with Bank of America NT&SA.   The term of the secured
revolving line of credit of $8 million was extended for a twelve month
period, ending on August 31, 1997.  Interest on the line of credit was
reduced to the Bank of America Reference Rate (8.75% at July 31, 1995). 
The Offshore Rate, which the Company may elect to have all or portions
of the line of credit bear interest at, was changed from a calculated
rate to LIBOR plus 1.5% (Offshore Rate at July 31, 1995 was 9% compared
to the amended rate of 7.875%).  In addition, certain reporting
requirements and financial covenants were amended.
