Krzys Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 If you are changing the whole engine I think the other 1.4's are very similar so I don't think you'll have much to worry about. @vtec2011, is that right dude? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Could always look at just having the bores re-honed and new rings on yours? Or it may well be cheaper to just stick a whole new engine in .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkesyMB6 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 My mates missed ep2 slipped a tooth and it bent nearly all the valves he got a engine from the breakers with 40k on it for £150! Cheap as chips if you ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 You can use any 1.4 block as they are all pretty much identical. The only time you have to watch what block you use is when you go vtec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Replacement engine would be easier surely. I see people selling d14 from ej9 for like 100 quid after b swap or whatever.I sold my d16z6 for 150. Was a lovely little engine. Spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
