In the grand scale of things CA`s and SR`s are shit. But for cheap engines that can take abuse they both rock.


CA`s get a bad billing because people think they are cheap so they`ll work on them theirselves and you know what people are don`t you, thats right shit. So when mr home mech on only rebuilds his 120,000m engine (properly measured? Doubt it) but tunes it to and uses a generic "stage" chip its never going to last.

I`ve had recently a 270bhp CA and a 270BHP SR, apart from abit of extra torque there wasn`t much difference and both were totally reliable. That CA was rebuilt properly which is why it lasted with medium power.
