lol a 1L shouldn't be any difference to any other engine, you'l just need a slightly thicker head gasket to take up the bit of metal you had taken of when it was skimmed.

the reason he's saying itll be harder is cause its a timing chain not belt, but i dont think it should really do much difference, youd be better off getting another 1l engine for now mate tbh.
