I just now realized this new engine that I have been piecing back together over the past few weeks isn’t the 1.8L that the PO said it was. The engine code on this engine is EA050723, which if I cross checked correctly is indeed a 1.7L
My issue is, I have been transplanting my old 1975 1.8L Ljet fuel injection parts on this 1.7 block. Can I run Ljet on this 1.7L engine? What obstacles am I up against? Is my 75 1.8L relay board interchangeable with the 1.7L setup? |

You haven't seen me if anybody asks... Group: Members Posts: 4,738 Joined: 14-June 03 From: USA Member No.: 819 Region Association: Upper MidWest |
Who knows what the DAPO did with the engine. The cases are universal, but swapping the 1.7 crank and rods and cylinders and heads for 1.8 parts can get you a 1.8. What cylinder size do you have? What heads? Pics?
You may be matched but it depends on the parts. |
