Jerm Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Changing the heads around makes no difference in compression... as stated above the only thing that would happen is the valves would be smaller with the 1300 head as most of the late 1600s have larger valves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 yep thats dead right unless you have a mega early head with the small chambers in them but you prohaby dont Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerm Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 hmm.... it looks like a 1300 engine to me... not sure though kinda hard to see on that pic but the waterpump looks close to the deck of the block... which means its a 1300.. check the number son the side though below the exhaust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flynboy Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 been talking to the last owner, he said 1600 block with 1600 head, 1300 cc rocker..(says no more about rocker cover)!..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esky boi Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Check out the serial number bro, it'll be on the bottom left hand rear corner of the block, (looking from rear of car) should be 711M 6015 BA for a 1600 or 711M 6015 AA for a 1300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toucan Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 No it's a 1600, I think. From that angle you would'nt be able to see the top of the waterpump if it was only a 1300, I compared it with one of my engine pics... http://img107.imageshack.us/img107/5167/engine18tm.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flynboy Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 from wot i see da water pump looks like its in the same place just dat top piping goes some were else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerm Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 pipe looks like its going to the same place but via the carb on your one because you are running an auto choke which is activated by water temp. escorta is that a pic of your 1300? engine?
