Are there any issues that I should be aware of in putting a 1.7 engine in a 1.8 car? Any wire differences?
The swap will be from one car to the other, so parts from both cars will be available for the conversion. What needs to be changed other than the engine itself? thanks |

Both engines are FI, factory. The 1.7 will keep its injection system on the motor, so we will be putting a 1.7 injected motor in the 1.8 injected car. We have all the D-Jet stuff for the 1.7 (it is in a running car now) we want to keep the D-jet on the 1.7 and swap it into the 1.8 car. So the issue is are there wire differences on the 1.8 body that will need adapting to accept the 1.7 D-jet???
thanks |
