Hi,
I have a 1990 1.6 capri which is fuel injected. I want to replace it with a 1992 1.6 KH laser motor which has a carby. So what I want to do is take the head and intake manifolds from the capri motor and put them on the laser motor. Then put the laser motor in the capri. Can I just change the head and intake manifold from the capri onto the laser motor. Would the combustion chamber be the same? The pistons? I assume there be a fuel pump to change over and maybe some of the electrics. Thanks Rob |

Youd be best to find another capri motor. not 100% sure but if ones injected and ones carby there will be differences, ie where the crank angle sensor is, how the pick up is mounted, cam sensor etc(the injected motor will have these, the carby one wont),
it may turn into a headache for you... |
