XE engines came in Calibra's, Cav's and Astra's.
You do realise it had work on it to give it the extra 50cc, right?

The engine I had built up had:
Rebored block
Oversized heopolite pistons
Lightened and balanced bottom end
Arp rod bolts
And 264 cams which came out before I sold the car
Lightened flywheel and Valeo organic clutch
I got some pics of the rebuild I can send you next week when I am free

get one with pics/paperwork to show the work done.
They all seem to have been 'rebuilt' and had only covered approx 80k miles on ebay

I was given an engine that was apparently a 2.1, the boy that gave me it thought as much for about 10yrs. I took the head off it and it had standard pistons though, try to get hold of a boroscope to check
