Hi All,
I plan to rebuild the 1.8L in my '75 project. The engine is original and complete with the L-jet fuel injection. I want to keep the original L-Jet Fuel Injection and was wondering what are good P&C sets for this engine if I don't want to change the fuel injection system? Reliability is my highest priority for the rebuild. The PET catalog has 022198075A listed as the part number for 1.8L, but it also has this part number listed for the 2.0, so I'm not sure if it's correct. Is Mahle the OEM vendor for these engines? Thanks in Advance, Dennis |

Get these 96s.
You'll need to calculate the compression ratio (CR) and make the changes you need to to get the CR where you want it to be. Put in 96 and jump the CR up to around 8.5:1 and you'll have a nice little upgrade. |
