    how can you tell ?

    The difference between a 16v engine and a williams ?

    Ibought what i thought was a 16v but im not sure about the engine , the limiter is very low and its rollin roaded at 155bhp with filter and scorpion full system!

    seem strange to anyone else?

    the torque lower down is always a giveaway, of you get a kick at about 4-4.5k revs its a valver engine but if you get it form 2-2.5 its a williams engine or a heavily modified valver engine!

    You could whip the ECU out and write down all the markings... Im sure Nick Hill would be able to tell you whether its a Williams ECU or Valver ECU from your findings.
