Eg not high revving, low bhp, very heavy. Will certainatly upset the handling of a 205. I'd say a decently tuned 1.9 205 engine would be much better.

Yes there low revving as standard, rev out at 6k but then again tge 206 does at 6.5k so not alot of difference there. Also the engine suits the 205 very well. Sound of slience in Falkirk have had a good few of these engines in their 205 track cars and put up a good battle against most high powered cars. 220+bhp in a car that weighs around 800kg will shift

Everything mission off the front is inside the car and he is giving me a spare bumper and bonnet too. Years of dust sitting on there ready to be cleaned away when i get it home later on today hopefully

Just put it in my back yard for the time being. Made a start on it removed the front bumper and get the wire brush disc on the grinder and set away removing all the surface rust. Going to try get the engine out this week so i can get to the rest of the engine bay and get it ready to paint for the weekend.
