1300 Dual Port Heads on a 1600
I have just been given a complete 1300 (AB) Dual Port Type 1 Motor.
I currently have a brand new new set of standard 1600 Barrels and Pistons.
Will these Barrels and Pistons bolt straight on to the 1300 motor, or do I have to modify the heads?
Cheers

I believe the heads are the wrong size...
Would probably be worth having the heads re-coed (and set up for 1600 pistons and barrels) whilst you are changing things over - this would sort the
problem out and ensure that your top-end is in the best possible condition for a long life
The 1300TP heads also have smaller valves so they will restrict the breathing of the engine - get them changed to the bigger 1600 valves when you have
the heads re-coed...

40hp, 6V and ...er... slowly making improvements
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!
