Been offered a 1.6 8 valve.
No coil, alternator or starter but i can use 1.3 bits
No fan, it is as simple as redrilling my 1.3 fan isn't it?
Cheers

Get a electric one much better

I'd use the opportunity to put an electric one on, then you can knock it off in water?

Re: Swapping fans
Water pump is the same therefore the original fan will bolt straight up!
I would recommend fitting a 1.6 rad
