vts head on a vtr?
my gut is telling me this wont go (because people are on about putting whole engines in instead) but thought id ask if a vts head would fit into a vtr?
been looking at performance heads on a few websites and thought the easiest way to get more power easier would be to put a vts head on first.....
feed back? will it work/ wont it work?
also i know it will need a new ECU/remap
cheers
simo

Lots of differences between the 16 & 8v blocks, make it not worth doing!

a 16v head has been done on an 8v bottom end. However the 205 hillclimb car in question had huge ammounts spent to do this and was only done because of class regulations
