General 1498ccm or 1585ccm in my Uno?

[Unclechuchu]

Hello!

I have an Uno with the 1498ccm 85hp. I'm planning on using this Uno in a norwegian racing serie called Corsa Italiana, and my first question is: Should I stick with the 1498, or go for a 1585ccm 100hp? This is going to be lowbudget, so I want to keep the engine as stock as possible. Standard = reliable. Does anyone know how much the weight difference between these two engines are? Would be fun with a Uno TC.

Any other advice on which engine I should go for is much appreciated!

Well, not much info to get here. Any tip on where I can get some of the info I'm looking for? Must be someone racing with one of these engines out there?

I am about to have a race tune 1580 cc engine from a Tipo fitted to my race Uno. I expect it to give me in the region of 130 Bhp but i'll no more next week. Engine has run on the dyno but not yet in the car.

What kind of engine have you use before? I'm very interested in how the car handles with this engine compared to the old one.

Have a look here and there is lots of info about my race car. http://www.sportingfiatsclub.com/forum/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=29

The 1580 engine has been delayed but I raced it at snetterton a few weeks ago and it went well apart from a cracked exhaust. Hoping to be out at Brands Hatch on 10 May.
