Title: Lightly used Topline 1.6 head, 2 1.6NA engines
Post by: dodger21 on April 22, 2011, 07:05:01 pm

I have a Topline 1.6 IDI head. It was rebuilt and used before the guy parted the car. Supposedly has less than 3000 mile. Not a lot of soot in the exhaust ports. I believe its a hydraulic head but look at the pics and let me know. Also, for a deal, there are 2 engines, 1 mechanical head running, and 1 hydraulic head unknown if to run.

The Topline head ~ $300 + shipping

The 1.6's NAs ~ $500 for both, picked up. I can deliver 200 miles for $1/mile.

That head looks like it has hydraulic lifters but then the second oil drain is plugged ???

I think it is for putting it on a mechanical block. Someone else said this on here but I cannot remember how I found it.

Didn't topline make them to fit everything? They will fit 11mm and 12mm blocks mech or hydro? I think you can pull that plug for hydro and leave it for mech. I could be wrong as I have never had a topline head, but I remeber someone saying something about that.

I've heard that too although I don't believe it yet. IIRC the bolts have .5 inch spacers under them which seems like for shorter 11mm bolts but the bolt hole is still for 12mm. You'd have a fun time centering the head on the block...........
