Is there a difference in the cases between a 1.7 and a 2.0 bare case? If so..can the 1.7 be modified...
Also...I have a 2.0 I think I can make run....but it is missing two injectors...can I just use the 1.7 injectors to make it fire up...not gonna drive it...just dont want to ruin the brain or anything else.... Thanks... Quad |

I just built a 2.0 off a 1.7 case and I had clearance issues just as Andy described. You have to do a little machining to let the piston skirts clear when they're at the bottom of their strokes. If I recall correctly, it was just the most fore and after pistons that wouldn't clear. It's been a year, so it's fuzzy in my mind now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I don't think you'd hurt the ECU or injectors by using 1.7 injectors with a 2.0 system. However, I'd be worried about your running the motor lean, which could cause some real damage? Why half ass it? Just do it right from the start. |
