Title: identifying beta engines
Post by: tonylanciabeta on November 01, 2008, 11:34:44 AM
I've just picked up what I think is a 2 litre engine. How do I basically make sure it's not an 1800 or something. I take it the engine number or a distinguishing feature should tell me. Any help would be appreciated.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why would'nt you want an 1800 they rev a lot harder and make more power than
the 2000
all in all a much better engine.

Please do not lose this everyone, worth saving / printing , as it took me ages to compile, especially with my one finger typing technique.
