Im confuesed, when is the *fast* engine going to be fitted then?

 

fook off :wink:

 

OK il admit, im actually a closet fan of the CVH :oops: but my mk2 XR2 had a special grind cam, RS1600i solid lifters and DCNFs and it pulled and sounded dead ard! i do quite miss it really, would have been more than happy to fit that engine in my cappa.

you want the early mk2 XR2 carb mate, the later ones were pretty poo to be honest, the earlier ones had bigger choke sizes as well.
