PG and IH G60 engines interchangeable?

[vagingit.co.uk 0]

I know the displacement is different on the PG and Rallye IH engines, but are there any other diferences?

 

Can I use a Rallye IH bottom end with my PG Corrado cylinder head?

DanVW has a ralleye engine in his car. I think the main one difference you'll notice is the head bolts, which are only available from VW and very expensive.

Looks like the 1H had oil jets on the bottom end, not sure if this effects comaptibility though

All the 4 cylinders have oil jets for cooling the pistons.

i had IH from a rallye in my raddo,only difference i could rememeber was the displacement was bit smaller,i think :scratch:

Still when like sh*t off a shovel though and heard somewhere that the block is reineforced but i dont know how true that is

 

As toad said i think it was head bolts from a rallye was needed but a PG head will bolt straight on

Yh, the displacement was slightly smaller to meet FIA criteria to race in a certain class. There may be some truth in the reinforced block theory if it was designed for racing.
