  1. Hey it worked well. 130hp out of a 2.0 4 cylinder was good power for a small car back then
  2. Sharn alert When truimph were developing a new engine. Saab was also looking at developing a new engine for the 99 so UK engineering company Ricardo was contracted to design a new engine, but decided it was too costly. So Ricardo pit. Saab in contact with triumph. The triumph engine was at first used only in the Saab at 1.7ltrs only later when the engine went out to 1850 was it used in the triumph dolly. The one cam lobe operates both valves the inlet diretly below the cam is by buckets and shims and the exhaust is by a rocker arm positioned further round the cam for correct timing. A good upgrade if you can find the bits would be a 1850 4 valve engine.
