That is one cool car, beautifully set up, handling is amazing even after his off road excursions, well done and fantastic driving, real nice little car.
they use the old cast iron Opel CIH short block, now in the early 1980's they (GM) made a dual over head cam version of that motor for rally racing but those heads are hard to find, so the they take a Opel 6 cyl DOHC head cut off the last two cyl's and fit that on to the the Cast iron block.
@@hdbhehddbz No Webers. I think at this performance level Webers are not efficient enough. The sound will be generated by ITBs or independent throttle bodies in combo with electronic injection.
I wish I lived in Germany----Like my friend the aeronautical engineer... So I could buy an aunthentic Opel GTE or 1.8/2.0s!!!!!!!!!! Gawd I love the looks of Opel Kadett C Coupes, and Chevettes HS/HSR's much better than MK2 Escorts, only a UK opinion!!!
Apparently they're being pretty secretive about the specs. Couldn't find anything on their site. Found this trascript of a caption from another video of the green Kadett - Christoph Zwahlen, Opel Kadett C 2.5 16V Weight 790 kg, 300hp
Here is what i know, they take the old CIH engine (opel) and GSI engine aswell and then they use cih engine as the engine head, they remove the extra cylinders, mostly they use that head because it has wider canals of the valves, they put the 4 cyl GSi 16v engine and they use it as the engine head, they come with great results (of course they strengthen it up but i dont have that much info). The company that tunes these kind of engines can be found in google under "Risse Motorsport", German tuning company that is located like 70-80km from me.
Der will's aber wissen! Respekt für den Mut👍
Hill climbing masterclass right there…. 🔥🔥

Wie der ans Limit geht. Sehr spektakulärer Fahrstil. Hoffentlich erholt er sich von seinem Unfall wieder.
300 hp in a lightweight great handling car is bliss.

I'd say "the bravest pilot" :)
Hopefully he will have recovered and be back somewhere in 2014.
That car and driver needs to saved in a museum.

I'm putting them in batches, we don't need to stinking badges... Hooray for Blazing Saddles...
How much horsepower?? :) The sound is phenomenal :D
I think the sound is courtesy of the induction roar from sidedraft Webers. Anyone?
300HP ;)
Agreed
