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 |

thanks Guys. What a wealth of great info.
The slippery slope is starting:-) So to summarize what I read: - change to 96mm pistons - increases displacement, compression ratio, and will work on stock 1.8 case (no mods to case) - Cam - can keep stock, but change if I want to get sporty - heads - No mods required for 96mm pistons - L-jet FI - can keep stock, but larger TB improves performance - Any comments on NOS NPR vs AA P&C Sets? - Any recommendations to improve engine cooling? Thanks! |

Thanks! Use your cylinders, have them bored to fit the 96mm pistons. Those cylinders will be more stable than a new set.... |
