ALL CASES ARE THE SAME- 1.7-2.0!!!

The difference is the crank, rods and pistons..

The head registers are 100mm on the 1.7 and 105mm on the 1.8 and 2.0 heads...

I recommend using our 96mm big bore kit for the 1.8 engine and replacing your heads with 1.8 units- all interchangeable with larger chamber volumes, bigger ports and bigger valves!

Stay away from the 96mm kits for the 1.7 head register they are thin and very problematic. You CAN open the 1.7 heads from 100 to 105mm, but you'll still have smaller valves ports and chambers, all of which iompeded efficiency of the combo..
