StevieH Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Hi I've seen a second hand Vauxhall red top 16v head for sale can this be put on the Vauxhall 2.0 8v bottom end ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opel2000 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Valves will hit the pistons mate. So if you have to replace the pistons you may as well look for a block as well as head, or a complete engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opel2000 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Gonna be working on a Red Top engine today, will take a few pics to show you what I mean, I believe the Haynes only shows the SOHC block and pistons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
