1.9 & 2.0 Turbo Heads

[Pob 1]

Hi all,

 

Is there any difference between a 1.9 and a 2.0 turbo head?

 

Thanks,

Dan

inlet port shape, 1.9 is square 2.0 is oval

 

different casings around the plug area, 1.9 plugs recessed 2.0 plugs not

 

i think thats about it not sure about the valve sizes though.

Ah, ok... The head is quite pitted and I have a decent 1.9 head. I'll have to get quite a bit skimmed off and use a thicker gasket...

no the inlet ports a different unfortunatly, skim the pitting out dont use a thicker head gasket, get a tiny performance improvment just check valve clearences!!

Good thinking! How much can you take off before you run into problems?

You could also look for an 2.0 8v n/a engine,

 

 

both turbo and n/a are the same
