Hey all:
I have a 1.8 liter euro M10 engine with the 118 cylinder head (actually marked 1.6/1.8 but I've been told it's the same). I want to bolt on a larger valve head and I have found a E12 head. Will there be a problem with using this head with the original pistons? Any idea what the compression ratio will be? Can I use a more aggressive cam like a 288 without hitting the valves on the pistons? Also, just to confirm, can all E12 heads run on unleaded fuel without a problem? Thanks in advance to all.
