• Yep I was surprised they don't go for more. More reliable than their reputation apparently and good club support too.

  • Reliability was down to not running rust inhibitor and changing coolant regularly as it was an iron block and alloy head. I liked the 1850 as they were cheap and easy to fix and if the engine was dead get a tr7 2l engine to fit.

    That car engine bhp seems odd as a decent close tolerance build seems to give around 190.
