    opel 2.4

    power plot from a 2.4 CIH manta engine, BVH, 244 cam, 10.5 c/r std exhaust manifold, performance exhaust, single 65mm throttle body, comtrolled by a emerald ecu, it was built to give a good spread of power and be nice and user friendly in a road car

    183bhp 177lbft.

    its worth noting that a 244 in a x/flow is really revy and quite peaky, but in this big capacity 4 pot peak power is nice and low at only 5888rpm,

    the mixture is going a tad lean at the top end for max attack use thrashing round a race circuit on the rev limiter, because the injectors a tad too small so they are on 100 duty cycle at peak power, on a race engine i would replace them with something bigger, but on a road engine that is never going to be up in that part of the rev range except the odd second or two occasiobnally if thats much at all, so its fine as it is
