Could you please give us the RPMs for the max HP and the max Torque (for each version of your
engine).  A graph of HP and Torque vs RPMs would be better, like Bostsig:
http://www.bostig.com/products/zetec/Engine_Specs.php .

This way we can compare with Ben's excellent conversion page at:

http://www.benplace.com/conversions2.htm

Ben: if you read this, maybe you could add this Ecotec engine data to your web page for easy
comparison (Thanks).

For me (Me only) an engine that gets max HP nad torque up at 4,000 or 5,000 RPMs is NOT an option
for me. m2cw  Malcolm
