Audi80, Myke_w, do you have any experience or knowledge of anyone converting a 1.6td to a 1.7td by going to the larger pistons? You have confirmed that the crank is the same. I believe that I have read here earlier that the piston pins are the same. Would it also stand to reason that the rods are the same as well?
I am heading to Canada next week to pick up two 1.6td's. Motors are already pulled, complete. One I was told had the bad heat cracks between the valves. The other should be solid. I am also picking up a 1.9TD head. It will need a rebuild. I was told the camshaft BROKE :shock: while it was running. It is still straight. Looks like a good oppertunity for the Pass. Perf. camshaft upgrade. Thanks again for the help. Jim
