Re: B23F power vs. b230f 200 82

1/the 100530 cylinder head ports are superior to the 100398/100405.

2/there's (yup) less friction

3/there's dramatically lighter reciprocating weight

4/different (better) camshaft, in view of how most people drive and also more sophisticated control of emmissions.

5/volvo hp figures have been notoriously fictional since the 60's.

6/If you were canadian you'd not be saying that- in 81-early 83 we got the euro 136hp b23e- peaky but fast
