They're all the same, same crank and rods as the 1.6 EFI Turbo & N/A, 1.6 MFI Turbo & N/A and 1.6 Carb

Ah right i see (still a little bit crept in towards the end )

Just realised u didnt actually state an engine size in that first post, i thought i saw 1.6 lol

I know nothing about the tall blocks, but im sure it is supposed to have a longer stroke, so hence a different crank.

This is a crank i removed a couple of weeks ago from a 1.6 EFI N/A



Same numbers you will see.........i doubt the rods have any difference, length though if anything.

cheers defently looks the same as the 1 in this block i got i suppose only other way to find out is to measure the stroke and the bore and calculate the capacity.

Should the engine size be stamped on the side of the block?
