[r5_scotty]

is the c1j the same a the gtt lump? only i cant tell them apart? the look exactly the same? whats different? someone must know:D

[Kris M]

The 1400 na c2j? Block and crank is the same iirc

[TNT Tricky Nicky]

Same block, different internals to lower compression ratio :)

[r5_scotty]

cheers :agree: only as i have been given a campus lump for spares. its only covered 28,000 miles thought it would be good to charge it but o well.

[r5_scotty]

if its lower comp surely this would be good to charge it?:confused:

[TNT Tricky Nicky]

Oops my bad, turbo engines have lower compression

Campus engines are generally in better condition as the cam bearing housing don't generally show the same kind of wear.

Everything is a straight swap, differences are cam profile, and pistons

Pretty sure Colin did a turbo'd Campus engine, went well :)

[r5_scotty]

sod it i may have a go!:) as i have all the parts in the garage ther than a head gasket.

[GTphil]

You could always just take a few mm off the pistons with a grinder;)

[r5_scotty]

i have 2 sets of gt pistons so all good:):agree:

[michael tierney]

head might be different!! check the number of manifold studs,i know the older ones had either 4 or 2 exhaust ones missing!and its also not as thick...71 or 72mm

[r5_scotty]

high comp low boost:D:agree:

[Sparkie]

you will need a gt turbo oil pump, else you will fry your turbo.

:agree:

[r5_scotty]
