• comparing the two i know that the 1.5 has smaller head studs, but other than that everything seems the same, is that true?
  
  is there any other differences?

• the oil return could be bored out couldnt it? the swirl chambers i doubt though....
  
  so what im hearing is that i should just wait for someone who will need a 1.5 head and not bother trying to make it work on my 1.6 :?
