2.0l block

[brian_wagner at sbcglobal.net (Brian Wagner)]

It is really hard to say, but what I have read up on.  The 1.8 16v head will
afford you more torque at the lower rpm ranges (intakes flow better), the
2.0 16v with give you more hp on the top end but the torque curve drops off
(exhaust flows better). That said what may feel like more hp is infact the
bottom end torque gained by using the 1.8 16v head. And we all know torque
is what we want, right!

So a 2L with a 1.8L head has about 135 hp? Is that correct then?
