hello and welcome

yea the mark 1's are 8 valve. If its idling a bit low then turn the idle screw up a bit so it sits nicely at about 850-900 ish!. They should have 110bhp so best way to find out is to take it to a rolling road and get it set up properly.

p.s. nice looking mark 1's, both look really tidy!  :cool:

you are alright mate

I like the whitewalls, add a bit of nostalgia to it, plus the car is white so works well.
