Welcome sounds like the head is scap its a common fault easiest fix find another head as for dohc cam engine sure it could be done but you would need engine gearbox and loom ecu etc would be a hell of a lot of work so just replacing the head would be the easy option

If you're going to be going with bigger tyres then a G16B conversion would be worth considering.

If you put the 1.6 in what else do you change? Ecu?? Do you keep the 1.6 inlet or put the 1.3 inlet on the 1.6 and run 1.3 ecu?? CheersRhinoman wrote: If you're going to be going with bigger tyres then a G16B conversion would be worth considering.

You use the 1.3 manifolds, do a forum search for 'G16B conversion' there are a few threads that describe how to do the conversion, its not quite a straight swap.
