1.4 8v head onto 1.2 8v block

Post by jordyp »

would a 1.4 8v head fit onto a 1.2 8v block? someone on migweb or corsasport had a 1.2 8v with 1.6 head.

It should be 1.2 8v head onto a 1.48v block and a tad of headwork doing it the way you are youll loose power unless you run some higher compression pistons with it
