Gti-6 Heads On An Xu9

Recommended Posts

brianthemagical

any idea as to weather a GTi-6 head will fit on a 1.9 GTi xu9? if so would the standard 205 GTi management work? any other points? thanks for the help.

There's no drilling for the extra camblet pulley and the right hand engine mount would be in the way. The L-Jetronic standard 205 management is not really suitable for 16v engines and fitting a distributor on the GTi6 head would be a serious operation.

 

Verdict has to be... not worth it!

Does the GTi-6 engine have the inlet cam driven vacuum drive unit like the S16?

 

If so then fitting a dizzy shouldn't be that hard because the cam will have a suitable keyway already in it .
