Mike,

According to the page I referenced earlier, the B18C makes peak HP at 2200 RPM and peak torque at 1500, if my non-existent Norwegian interpretation is correct. Those peaks are far below what you'd get with even the mild A cam (4700 and 2300 respectively, DIN).

The rest of the engine seems to be similar / identical, except for a different carburetor. Finding the correct cam is obviously the key.
