D16a8 Rover engine... what are the specs on this engine?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...=true
thats on ebay now, is it really "Higher lift camshaft, better flowing head and stiffer valve springs over the dohc zc jdm motor"
Dont know much about this engine other than its a edm rover engine...
btw, I have one in my car right now, and it feels friggin slow as all hell!! HAHHAHAA

D16A8. Honda's engine, just in Rover shell.
1.6l Dohc desing
130hp/6800rpm
153nm/5800rpm
Same as A9, just with rovers ugly valve cover. Some models were equipped with catalytic convertor. Basic 1.6 Dohc layout with 9.5:1 compression. A9 ran with PM7 components, not sure about the A8, but definatley runs great with PM7.

It comes with the USDM spec 4-1 header instead of the better flowing JDM 4-2-1 header.
It comes with a WHITE plastic T-Belt cover instead of black
Valvecover is SPECIAL
POWER and SPEC-WISE I DOUBT there's anything MAJOR in difference.
