Trouble with the 1600 is it has tiny valves. A cvh 1600 is actually more powerful.
I have however seen one 1600 zetec with a 1.8 head and 2.0 cams. Ad some arp bott end bolts and 7500 to 8000 rpm becomes realistic. Other wise get a zetec a fiesta or 1.6 puma. 120 bhp with breathing mods and stronger chassis
