hmm so im confused i know its to soon to be posting but ok..can someone get me out of doubt? I got a KF engine with round runners supposebly 160 hp.. I would imagine that is the kfde? assuming kfze is the 170 hp version? with squared runners? coming from that lantis car? can anyone specify if there is such a thing as kfde?

Yeah there is, apparently it came with the 323F, also i'd imagine AUS-spec cars and Euro KF's would be DE-spec

The runners on my KFZE curved neck manifold are squared off, but i never noticed what shape my old KFZE MS-8 straight neck had

KF-DE can be found in the 1994-1998 323F here in Sweden. 145hp. 2.0L V6.

I can testify that its a pretty sweet little engine aswell, had a test drive in a Uk spec 323F ZXI with the 2.0l V6, Suprisingly quick. Wondered about doing a complete transplant form a 1998 323F ZXI.

If you had a straight neck with round runners, chances are you have the 160hp model. Brian and I both had the same engine.
