Looking at engine the only real difference externally was the oil & water pipe plumbing for the turbo as the turbo is water cooled these fittings are under exhaust manifold plus one in the sump for oil return. The head is exactly the same I think the NA injectors are different aswell. Inlet manifold are very similar. would be probably cheaper for Michael to buy another engine as ignition parts are quite expensive. there are also two different turbo engine's one intercooled with 4 coil packs with throttle body facing front of engine 130kw the non intercooled engine has one coil & throttle body facing across the engine. cheers Andrew Errol Smith wrote: > Andrew, > Is there any external way you can tell the difference between NA & turbo > engines?. > Cheers > Feral Errol > > ---------- > From: Andrew Denniss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Ca18 > Date: Wednesday, May 24, 2000 9:43 > > Micheal the main difference is the turbo pistons are flat top not dome top > like > the NA and also the turbo version has a crank girdle as well as oil > squirters > for bottom of pistons. > Andrew > I have both engine the turbo in my 1200 and the NA for spares > > Errol Smith wrote: > > > Michael, > > The blocks are the same for FWD and RWD CA's.
