Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted April 22, 2010 Area Representative Share Posted April 22, 2010 Hi Carl Good luck with the sale (it would be great in 21 - ask Dave Hard but a) I can't afford it and b) I don't get all the performance out of the VHPD at the moment...

lindsseventweeks Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Great engine Carl, the next one must be very special to warrant parting with that monster 😬 If you said before I went the vauxhall route I would have had it ! thats a complete deal. Are you selling it with the flashy rocker cover ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevsta Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Wow, you're upgrading from this?!?! I scare myself with the circa 150-160 I have in my K! You must have balls of steel (or titanium for lightness 😬) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrigsby Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 It's very similar to my engine which is a lovely level of power if slightly over the top for general road use. In this spec the Duratec is a nice lazy engine with lots of torque but it's still quite happy to rev. If anyone is thinking of going Duratec this is a very cheap way of doing it.

heavenly7 Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 What is involved if replacing a K series - I guess it would a whole lot of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
