Last winter I built a 2056 using a 1975 2.0. This winter I am rebuilding a 1974 1.8.
The 1.8 has one trashed C&P so I am wondering if I can use the old 2.0 C&Ps for my rebuild, using all four of course. Everything seems to fit; head to cylinder register, cylinder to block register, wrist pins for connecting rod, etc. There is only a +1mm difference in bore diameter. I am not trying to build a HP engine just something close to stock. Any insights? |
