• Needing a timing cover for a 1.9 aaz in Vancouver b.c.  Any one know if a 1.6 will work? Anyone have a 1.9? Thanks

• I use the metal ones off early 1.6's, it takes a little 'tuning' as you need to weld a tab onto the center mount bracket and add a hole 16mm higher, then trim off some of the area on cover under the inj pump.  Then some creative hammering to open that area up a bit (directly under the IP)
