 I think that's up to yourself to decide...

 1200 = cheap, slow, reliable, fuel efficient.
 1600 = more expensive, less slow, less fuel efficient.

 btw I wouldn't want to call a 1600 a "hot" engine...  better call it 'lukewarm'...

get the 1600 and then start adding go go bits to it. i.e. header and muffler,different carb or carbs,dizzy,rockers, until you end up with a 2332 monster that gives you a cheesy grin and the shakes Grin Cheesy
