How much bhp can I expect from....
a 1600 cvh with piper high lift cam, twin 40s, electric fuel pump, vernier pulley, four branch manifold and lightened flywheel??
Just bought an XR2 with said lump in it, the car is a racer and the engine was tuned up by MV Turbos before it was put in storage 6 months ago. Put a battery on and it fired up no probs even in the fookin freezing Scottish weather. Was a bit spluttery to start with but I think its just cos she has been lying a while, sounds awesome!!!
Engine is going in my 1.1 Bonus and i have never had or driven a car with carbs before so just curious as to what kinda power it might have, i guessed about 115 bhp?
