vtr block on westie

[willis54]

I have a mk1 westie and I was wondering weather it iis possible to fit the engine block from a vtr to the westie cylinder head reason I ask a mate offered to sell me the block

Nope, no point what so ever.

Pointless, even the normal VTR head is superior to the west coast one plus you can get a full blacktop for pennies plus all ancillaries

Does the vtr head have different lobe sizes on the cams

[Gandi699]

I believe the blacktop head has a different design of combustion chamber on in the head, and as far as I'm aware it runs a different cam but really nothing to write home about. I cant give measurements though or details of duration

Mite as well.look for a full vtr setup then.lol
