corsa 1.0

Hi, little advice needed, Just changed the Head on my Daughters corsa 1.0 02 reg,  i purchased a replacement 1.0 12v head, twinport, on attaching it to the block, refitted almost everything except the inlet manifold.   Does not fit, it appears to be smaller in length ,, other than replacing the inlet manifold , is there anything else i would need to do,

Hi

Not sure it's as simple as that if replacing the head from standard 1.0 to Twinport as there may be differences in the combustion chamber / piston crown that may affect the correct running.

If the pistons travel freely without contacting the head or valves then at least that is one thing less to worry about, then that just leaves the inlet manifold to replace with one for the Twinport and see how you get on.

Please let us know the outcome as I personally would be interested to know if it works.
