cav engine; 70 odd brake. carb'ed i think. Depends on wot u want really; but its only 1.3 sr power, and possibly not as torquey, revvy.. Better with 1600 out of gte/gsi - 100ish bhp std then.

sounds cheesy/cheeky, but swapping it for a E16se/C16se is the cheapest and easiest way. These engines are plentyful, ?100-?300. Ude never find 30, 40 bhp out of the cav 1600 for that money.

16SV=Around 80ish bhp IIRC.

As above, the cheapest way to more power, is a better engine.
