Post by ZOOK60 »

ok what i want to know is i have a g16b out of a swift sedan and the bottom end is rooted :bad-words:

can i just bolt a g16a bottom end to it ?
will it change the compression ?
will the 16v head just bolt on a g16a engine?

sounds like you just need a die grinder to me or maybe even a 4inch with a half worn blade.

The mains don't wear as bad as they are bigger. You can just change the lower mains as they will be the loaded/worn ones.
