you would say that wouldnt you? Valvers are good in straight lines and thats about it. A highly tuned 1.6 16v would be better. an Example is Brosters

Also he isnt that old so he wont be able to afford a 2.0 mayve not even a 1.6 16v.
I know robin marriot has a 1.4 16v engine for sale maybe Prowler corsa coukd use that?

oh you havnt just said that!! Let clint take you out in his valver! id put money on that beating a hell of a lot of highly tuned 1.6's round a track!

Its like the old one, 'v6's dont handle!', well how many v6's have you been out in?
Valvers are the same, if you build them up to cope with the extra weight etc then there fine. Yeah, there never going to handle as well round bends as a 1.6, but, theyve got the torque to pull them around the bends and pull away on the straights.

Anyway, i cant imagine that car is going to be one for buring round tracks anyway is it!
