are there any differences between these 2 ?
the inlet manifold on the astra seems a different shape, cant tell much else ?

Is the question re: 16v engines?
Southie, i think he's on about 8v, probably looking at Astra engines to put into his Nova, Google it, im sure a lot of the Astra ones are on diss pack, and if your looking at early mk4 Astra engines there not a straight swap, lot of faffing, and lot lower power out put.

yeah, that's right scott, I was looking to possibly fit one into another wagon, but im curious as to why there 15 horse less. that's practically 15% difference for supposedly the same engine, with the same model number. any idea how / why ? im confused.
the only thing I can think of, if its technically identical is the possibility that's its loaded up with electrical goodies and has quite a restrictive cat
It's built for more economy a c16 and with that come power loss
maybe a different ecu map too ?
