K series - 1.6 or 1.8?
i know some of you use a K so would you rather use a 1.6 or 1.8? and are they easy to tune up etc?
oh, i mean standard K, not VVC etc!

In standard form the 1.8 has a whole 6 more horese power than the 1.6
1.6 = 112ps
1.8 = 118 ps
Outputs varied abit over the years.
Personally my fave is the 1.4 104ps.
K16 was designed to be a 1.4 all the valve and port design is based on that.
To get to the 1.8 they had to stretch the stroke quite a bit.

I have the 1.4 in my F1-2.
It is quite nippy and cheap on tax £115.
