I assume that they should fit just fine.

I will clarify: I stole the 1.7/1.8 rockers from my running 1.8L to convert a 2.0L to the swivel feet.
Now can I put the 2.0L rockers on the 1.8L that I "raped" for it's rockers. Obviously I need to readjust the valves afterwards... Stu |

Yes, you can. Since I'm a wee bit superstitious, I would consider swapping the rocker shafts and associated bits over as well as the rocker arms. Just in case the parts have "worn in" to each other.
BTW, I believe that the 1.8 and 2.0 rocker arms are the same. Only the 1.7 rocker arms are different, and that's really only in the diameter of the adjuster. --DD |

Why bother, they are the same rocker assembly UNLESS someone changed them out? 1.8 & 2.0 are 10mm adjustment screws. The 1.7 is a 8mm screw. The 1.7 rocker set up is the one to use if you are going for porsche swivel rockers.
