I would have thought so too, but lots of people seem to manage to get that sort of power out of the 1.6 (or at least claim they do!).

I think I'm just going to rebuild the 1.6, then possibly think about adding a small turbo. I won't be trying to get anything like 250bhp out of it though!

Almost ready to get the engine out by the way James. Just need to undo the gearbox and engine mount bolts, so the sooner I can borrow your crane the better
