Any comments on the 16 Valve?

Myself being a B230F driver - why do i never hear about the B234F (16 Valve)
Pros & Cons?
I've read that it fits some Ford 2.3L and have a Turbo Usage Capacity - so why not the fanfare?
The timing belt routing is kinda daunting... Really? almost 11 FEET of belt?

I've got one in a junkyard in "near" perfect condition, (i.e. obviously it's in a junk yard for SOME reason, but it's not raped like the others) it's for only $300 and the intake Cam Gear is pulled from the cam , yet the cover is still mounted; makes me think the valves are thrown - big deal - and I wanna research some benefits cuz I'm a sworn follower of the Multi-valved!!!
