engine questions

have been thinking about building up an engine for my sierra just to be ready for when i kill this one.

Not sure but i think i read somewhere that the g13b and g16b are the same block with same bore size. is this true?

Will a 1.6 crank fit into a 1.3 block without changing the pistons or rods?

want to try to keep a 1.3 block and numbers so i dont need to get it fully engineered.

Thanx

There is a 1mm difference in the bore G13 @ 74mm and G16 @75mm

No hope.

Theory and practice are two totally different things on this occasion.
