1.8 chav engine and f16 box?

[Alex J]

as above, would anybody buy it? as i have one, the engine is fine looks and sounds almost new!!, seems a shame to scrap ,and the box is good to! or is it a waste of time, be quick, or its off to die, i can remove both this morning!

1.8 carb? If so, putting one in a nova is a total waste of time.

[Sloth]

shame yer so far, or i'd have it as a spare. the f16 is worth ebaying mind.

I'm guessing its a x18xe

remind me to have a wager with you at some point.........

it is a 1800 carb engine from a mk2 cav...................as said in the initial post.

seriously, they weren't a bad engine, but not particularly tunable, and simply, they aren't a 2 litre.

for the same amount of aggro, you could xe it.

[Sloth]

it may be a 1.8 single point too....

[mowgli]

on an f16?

[Sloth]

yup. the f16 was used till 1995. it will be a c18nz code.

I couldn't see where it says its carbed, its on a f16 so assumed big block 1.8

and were any cavaliers actually fitted with the x18xe?

[Alex J]

As far as I know they were all 8v's. I saw an N reg with one in a few weeks ago.
