actually...no its not that simple. there are a few other things you have to do...if you just swap heads it wont work the proper way.

lol yeah, that's what everybody around here goes to when they go from their 1.5's to 1.6 swaps, they run really strong too, I had one in my coupe that I had, it was a really good running motor.. I miss my coupe, but doing a b16a swap in my hatch now
