Engine choices

[twohippork@attbi.com (Adam)]

I'd say go with the 16v, they generally pull in much more airflow than
an 8v and you'll be much happier with the HP. The HP rating on a stock
1.8 8V JH motor is 90bhp where the 16v has a base of 123bhp I believe.
I personally am a fan of the 8v engines primarily because it's what I
have and what I've been working on for the last few years. It all
depends on how much money you want to put into any engine for the
desired results.

My $.02,
Adam

I have both a 1.8L 8V and a 1.8L 16V available in close proximty to me. 
   which one do I want????
Whats the HP rating on the 8V?  I imagine I could turbo it quite easily 
at a future date. Could i put a 20V head on it?

also anyone know the engine size that came in a 1982 rabbit convertable?


Gracias
