It was asked:
> If a stock 1600 is 96 hp,stock 2000 is 135hp, and a solexed 2000 is 150hp,
> what kind of horsepower is a stroked 1600?
General seat-of-the-pants speculation a while back was that a properly
ventilated stroker would get maybe 125.
Nice thing about a stroker is the valve train is more solid than the U20
'blow my chain thru the valve cover' design. OHC is more efficient, so
HP numbers are a bit better, but longevity counts too :-)

With both a 1600 and a 2000 so you can't say I'm playing favorites.
Plus a core 1600 that'll be stroked if I find 2000 guts for cheap :-)
