Brett, Unless someone like Cam has collected a set of R31 GTS spare wheels your going to collect these slowly one by one.
On the head problem. A L20B head (U67 or W53) has a chamber volume that's ~9cc larger than a 210 (1600 L16) head so your compression ratio will be very low (nice for a turbo). You cant just shave a U67 head by the amount req'd to give you 8.5:1 as the cam chain will be too loose. A W53 Stanza L16 head is a bit better but it will still lower the compression on a 1600 L16 to the point that you wont be happy with the lack of performance. If you want to keep your 1600 L16 block then you haven't got a lot of options other than finding a stock head that's serviceable or looking at buying a cheap L20B complete engine. regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of brett waters Sent: Tuesday, 11 December 2001 9:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: problems that require a little help firstly does anybody know where i can get a set of 15" chaser wheels to suit a 1600. second, has anybody ever put an L20 head on a L16? i'm happy to get the 2ltr head shaved so that i get comprable compression to the 1.6, does anybody know how much the 2 ltr head should be shaved. thanks million, unfournatlet i'm on an extremly tight (student) budget and dont have the luxury of a decent import motor (which would certaninly take away the few points i have left on my licence) thanks for any help _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
