Title: 2.0 16v engine into 2.3 car
Post by madmart on Jan 10^th, 2023, 9:22am

Hi guys has anyone had to fit a 2.0 16v into a 2.3 car ?
I am guessing that someone has had to do it because 2.3 engines have totally disappeared?
I am sure I will have to change the ECU and pat's system and keys and locks , but the inlet manifold seems different and I am not sure if the 2.0 has a dual mass flywheel ?
Any advice would be warmly appreciated

All the bits have been vacuumed up by the bangers. :( :( :( :( :(

Have aset from PJs old car aunty, computer and pats with keys and I think lock for ignition, have to lookit out if you're interested.

My spares car on the back drive is an late '94 saloon 2.0, reasonably complete, unfortunately rotten so a banger.

Had a banger boy on the drive last week, they are making a grand now "if you can find one", like I said you've had 'em all haven't you!!

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yes I know about the banger racers , I have a foreign registered 2.0 16v
And obviously it will fit but just checking to see if anything is drastically different between the 2.0 and 2.3 other than inlet manifold
