That's right, we only got B200Es, not Fs.

Official power ratings differed depending on year and spec. If I remember correctly, the highest figures were for B19E cars (-84 models?), at about 118bhp. High compression B200E models (85-86?) were about 115, while late low-compression B200E models (87-?) were 111bhp, I believe. B200K models differed too - 105 and 101 rings a bell, for high and low compression, respectively. The B19A (predecessor to the B200K) was something like 95bhp, from memory...mainly thanks to a weedy camshaft profile blunting high RPM power - the carb is bigger, and I bet those cars *felt* more powerful!

cheers
