1.6 with a 1.8 head?
#6
1.8's will swap the 94 -> 97 bottom end with all heads, the same with the others... The biggest issue is with the 01+ heads with the VVT... you need something to control it.
The 99/00 with VCIS... will swap to an M1 1.8 without issue... you just need to swap the CAS in, and make sure you have something to control the VCIS... a solinoid or something like that... <G>
Well documented on m.net and solomiata... <G>
Sometimes I wish I found a 99 head for mine when I put the used 1.8 bottom in... instead of a low-mileage 97. The advantage was price and availability... since I got the head from a buddy who was doing a motor swap at the same time. <G>
