A huffed 1liter long stroke is quite capable of making 100hp reliably with an appropriate torque level. Double what a brand new 1600 aircooled VW made. Add to that the ability to rotate fast enough to float the VW valves into the piston tops........

Kinda makes the 1.6 an equivalent to a big block American car.
