| Post subject: | 1.6 engine question |
I pulled down my new engine today its a g16a but it has 16 valve pistons in it. I am running the 8 valve headand it has run like this as its a second hand engine. 
My question is why would it have 16valve pistons in it? and will it cause damage eventually? also can i use a sierra 1.3 fuel pump in the 1.6 head cheers jesse |

I've found 16 valve pistons in G16A blocks too, it won't do any damage. Not sure if the fuel pump fits the G16 head? |

is there a compression difference in the 2 different pistons? also do 1.3 extractors fit the 8 valve head |

Damo can tell you what the differences are. There are 3 types that I know of, 8v, 16v shallow dish and 16v deep dish |

IMPORT 1.6 engines, regardless of being TBI, 16 valve or carby are all G16A. Only in Australia is the efi designated a 'B'. |

1.3 fuel pump fits with an adapter plate, and 8 valve 1.3 extractors will fit this is an 8 valve 1.6 head with existing extractors and fuel pump that came on the standard motor. 
you can just see the plate i made for the fuel pump, sorry only pic i have from the old motor
