One of the cams is bigger on the C16XE head and it has bigger ports than the XEL

Not sure if there would be a massive difference though

The X16XEL has more torque if i remember correctly, the C16XE was setup for higher RPM power

Still, the difference will be slight

I think it would be worth it driven both engined cars and the C16 was noticably better.
Than and one of my powerboxes and it will be just right

Doesnt the xel run the x14xe head and cams! So you should notice a difference but will be negligible

Yes, the xel has different cams.
So luke85 is right.
