Denis I would think that 190 bhp is a bit ott for a 1600 ! A good 1760 might get somewhere near it, and I can remember a Mass 2lt crossflow in an Escort
years back that had amazing hp . Going that big is a bit counter productive now as there isn't any historic class that it would go in .Also the cost to make one would be a lot more than a more modern powerplant. A well built 1700 is a more cost effective option as the bore size is not that much oversize, and if you start going 85mm or more the blocks are not that reliable. My engine gives amazing hp and does rev to 10 000 but not a lot of torque, it is also very reliable . It also cost a LOT of money to build ! |
