VAUXHALL 16 VALVE

 

When we first looked at the Vauxhall XE engine we were impressed, by its strong cylinder block, Cosworth designed cylinder head and square 86 x 86mm bore to stroke ratio, this gives the engine a good strong torque curve.

A development programme was set to create a range of performance kits for fast road, rally, hillclimb and race, which would give good power, torque, drivability and still maintaining reliability.
