Ive been asked to make a poll concerning my engine problems.
I have the much hated 1.4 12V engine in my Fiat Bravo, the head is fine and in very good condition. All I need a replacement bottom end to finish it off.

So while im at it what engine should I put in? Try and give reasons behind your choice. More of a fun poll I do intend to buy the cheapest 1.4-12v ive found on Wednesday. maybe you can change my mind :p

The 1.4 100hp seems like a nice option.

The progress thread is here;

Ive missed 1.2 oh well :p

I would stick to the 1.4 range.
Not to sure, but I bet if you went 2.0 you would have to upgrade your brakes etc.

don't get why you'd want to go to a 1.4 16v 100 in a bravo though? it'll do alright but it's less powerful/lower torque than the standard 1.6 16v of the bravo, though i suppose this is in the next tax band. 1.8 is the engine to go for tbh, and if you want to go on to modify it the alfa twinspark 16v engine are very similar, apart from heads.

if you want to go ott the alfa v6 can be made to fit:slayer:
 
If you are going to go to the hassle of changing it I would go for a 2.0 20V

But then it might be easier to sell it and Buy a HGT.
 
Waiting for my bottom end, everythings going a bit slow but its getting there :D

Ive been thinking about collecting the bits to make my bravo a HGT or turbo as a long term project, getting everything blue printed.

Could do with test driving a HGT and turbo, to feel the difference and decide which. :chin:
