Someone out ther has prolly done this: replace a 1.8L jet with a 2.0 D jet.
I know thebrain, harnesses , headers and muffler are different. Is this a plug-n-play conversion ? Any pitfalls lurking ? |

My 74 was a 1.8 ljet at one time and upgraded to 2.0 djet. If you have the harness for the 2.0 it really is plug and play. Your entire 1.8 exhaust will switch to the 2.0, unless you have a 2.0 ehaust setup ( exhchangers, muffler hanger, muffler, warm air guides...some heater tin is the same). |
