Default 1.6 head on 2.0 efi pinto

Hello
I know the question has been asked before. But I'm not really able to figure out a definite answer.
I have a 2.0 efi pinto. I want to assemble the head of the 1.6 Pinto. (Of course, make porting in inlet ports for injectors)
Is work?
Is valves touch pistons?
Do not have to replace Cam Shaft? (Was talking about 1.6gt reason)

What about valves clearance? Stay as they?

Tnx. And sorry to return ask

well minder you are correct, but its been rumoured that the valve chamber in the 1.6 head is of a smaller capacity then the 20.l which would then increase the compresion giving the feel of slightly more power, but the truth is the 1.6 is almost exactly the same as the 2.0l and does next to nothing to increase the compression, it does work eli3 as i have done it, the valves do not touch atall, if you want to increase the compression look for the extremely hard to find 1.3l head, but even then it takes a hell of alot of money and messing about to get a 2.0l pinto to feel quick, just so you have an idea, i fitted a 1.6l head with fast road cam onto a 2.0l block running twin 45's and i felt no difference in power atall, just sounded good

How to Jump wine 1:8.5 to 1:11.5 not give more power? And with the injection? "HPE" told me them build 2.0 with 1.6 head. and carburetor 32/36 and received 140hp. So Boy-Racer I do not know how you do not feel a difference in power. mybe your 45's not tuned good.

How much the 1.3 chamber?
