The 1.1 or 1.4 -> 1.6 mod requires a few more things.
Exhaust Manifold from a 1.6 as the oil filter is in a different place
Injectors
Intake manifold as it is a different bore width
Custom induction or the induction from 1.6
The clutch is different.. You could use your 1.1 clutch, it is bolt pattern compatible - but it isn't designed for the abuse. I'd recommend getting a 1.6 clutch/flywheel
1.1 -> 1.4 is pretty simple however. |
Wouldnt you get all that with a donor engine and box anyway? |
most scrap yards sell the block on its own without the gearbox. if you could get a decent clutch for the 1.1 i would stick with the gearbox as the gear ratios are bound to be shorter. |
Yes. I've used my old 1.1 gearbox as it is perfect for a track application. Maybe not quite wide enough to get me to max out the engine on a motorway but more than sufficient for the track.
Ideally I'd have a custom gearbox with even shorter gearing but a 6th gear.. But I suppose you can't have it all. Atleast not on a shoestring budget  :)

I could tell quite a bit of diffrence when driving my Mates OLDER 1.1 then getting In my 1.4,
Tho my 1.4 had trouble keeping up with jarreds (pugjh) NEWER 1.1  |
think the older ones only have single point injection thats why. unless thats just on the saxo engines |
Nar was multipoint.

I was just asking because the 1.1 I have in now is shot and I can't find out what is put(?) and I was just going to stick the 1.4 in because I can get hold of a cheap one off a friend not too bothered about speed or anything. I just want my car working again, thanks for the comments.
Please can you refrain from using text talk, thanks. Seb
