I don't think you can tell the difference between 
an engine with 1500 cylinders and one with 1600 
cylinders without taking it apart and measuring 
the pistons- unless there's an extra fin or two on 
the 1600 - it's been so long since I've seen a 
1500 cylinder that I can't remember for sure. 
When mantled up, I am certain you can't tell (at 
least without a dyno or something.)
