I have a 1.8 converted with a larger Bore and Euro Pistons. Do I adjust the valves for a 1.8 or 2.0 engine?

I see the spec is the same. Never mind...thanks for looking though!!

The spec is not the same. Valve gaps on the 1.8 motor are 0.006" for both intake and exhaust. The 2.0 motor, with its sodium-filled exhaust valves, uses a 0.008" exhaust valve gap, but the standard 0.006" intake gap.

Unless you found some (very rare) sodium-filled 1.8 exhaust valves, use the 0.006" spec just like a standard 1.8 does.
