Then there is the different timing belt, distributor , plug leads etc... list is near endless... plus you of course need to have the 16V head, cams, sprocket etc...Exhaust manifold / extractors have a different bolt pattern and the inlet manifold as you already have indicated.

Cheaper option is to buy a complete engine IMO.

Glad to see that you have your mind working on options though
What Grant said..


Either buy a 16v or continue with your 8v, dude.
