My car has a 1.7 single carb but I have access to a 1.8 fi motor. Should I do a swap when the motor and tranny are out for a clutch replacement??

I'm starting to see why people with limited mechanical abilities switched over to carb/s from FI. I guess a comprerssion test on my engine and the 1.8 would yield some valueable info. Maybe the 1.8 carbed might be an option as - for one reason - it has only been sitting for one year and my 1.7 has been sitting for about two. Jim
