F4R 730, F4R 738

[sammyhale22]

What are the differences, are they both clio engines? I found this info on the exide battery site.
It says the 730 is 169bhp and the 738 is 179bhp. I thought all the cliosports apart from the V6 used the 2 litre F4R 730 engine?

730 is the original Clio 172 engine. There are various other F4R's though including the 182 spec F4R which IIRC is a 738 - difference is the upper inlet manifold, breather and thats about it.

Crank is different as well.

 

[hmh]

Crank is for crankshaft? I was always told all F4R crankshafts are the same and was going to buy one soon. If they are not, what would fit Clio2 ph1 F4R 732?
