Need advice re 1.4 car engines.

[JohnnyJones]

I need a 1.4 production car engine for a project.

It must be less than 1427cc, single or twin cam, if it's single cam I can have head work done but not twin cam Cams are free. Must be on carbs.

What do you reckon? The K series in the caterham roadsport is good but have no experience of any others.

Has to be a production car engine.

Sorry, you are allowed to convert an injection to carbs. They can't be more than 32mm if it's a twincam motor but any size if it's single cam. I can also have the head worked on if it's single cam.
