Re: Big Valve head on a 1.7L?

[Kevin <aventari@cts.com>]

I might be doing this soon, to mate a 1.8 40/33 head to a 1.6/7 block, you
need to weld up the small oil return hole in the head, weld up the big one,
and then tap the big one out to the size of the return port oin the block.
everything else lines up great. Doesn't sound too hard to me!
