I have a '75 1.8 and I would like to know if it is possible and what would be required to convert to a 2.0 Euro Spec. Is there block and/or head machining necessary? If not possible, what is the biggest cylinders I could put on my 1.8? Let me know. Thanks

I'm 99% sure the 'euro spec' is the same as the 2.0 US spec from 73-74 with FLAT TOP pistons... no case machining needed, until you get to about 100mm pistons you won't have to flycut the head until about 103mm pistons. I'm NOT sure about what the 'euro' heads valve sizes were... but I think they were the same. |
