Whole engine, AFH code

If your set on keeping it looking original then the ABD bottom end, or full engine, the head is the same.

Yer. Just fancy havin a mess about with the 1.3 8v at the mo mate. I know people are gonna say why spend money on not much power but a 1.4 afh could only be run on bike carbs as I really cba to convert to ecu etc...

I also wanted a smallish engine as I'm going to be fully smoothing the ba and getting rid of everything into other places exept the engine etc.

put a 1.6 AEE in there. looks the same as a 1.3 pretty much!

Yer dude, what bhp are these standard and fairly easy to get hold of?

75bhp 100 torque, if you do some mods to them they pull really well!

He's got one you can have :lol:

perfect running order :lol:

yeah for future reference, make sure the engine runs first lol

Yer dude pret interested in this way then, I'd still run it on bike carbs what other mods is there for this? Cams etc?

yeah you can get a 268 or a 272 cam but you need a vernier pulley to get the timing spot on.

theres someone on here with one that made around 140 bhp with carbs and a cam
