I also considering a1600cc double overhead cam vtech (how many horses does this engine produce anyway ). What do I have to take into consideration, what are the draw backs and or benefits of useing one engine versus another. Guys i need help
Dude, you seriously need help. Check out
http://www.bseries.net for your questions. I know what you're talking about when you say 1800cc but the 1.8 is actually 1797cc - try to stick to L instead of cc because that's how these engines are referred.
Also, DOHC is DUAL overhead cam. You may want to look at the sticky above for "simple questions".
