I need a new engine in the car asap.....and havent really got alot of time....
Is there ALOT of difference between 1.4 8v SPI and the 1.4 8v MPI? I will be using a 1.2 8v gearbox with the SPI....and probably a NOVA GTE cam?

Im asking this because ive been offered the SPI for Really cheap

SPI is only 60bhp. the MPI is far better performance wise with 82bhp and a very gutsy feel
