Hi Guys,

Was going to put this in the tech section, but wanted to know ppl's views on the M10 block.

Also does anyone have any idea what sort of power a 1.8 M10 would put out with a stock bottom end, but ported / polished big valve head, a hi-lift long deg cam and full throttle body set up? I've been told around 190 but I'm not sure about that myself!

Cheers!

The S14 is based on the M10 block, and they can be very strong. In the days of Turbo F1, the 1500cc M10 was tuned to an amazing 1500Bhp....
