Re: head? turbo vs non-turbo 16v??? Posted by CMyles [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: head? turbo vs non-turbo 16v???, Christian, Sun, 4 Dec 2005 13:26:05 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Judging from my parts microfiche I'd conclude that those two heads are identical. Of course your old head should be an "external oiler" and the newer head will be an "internal oiler". The internal oiler is an improvement and should bolt right on without concern just make sure that your new head gasket has all the right holes in the right places. I thought that the valve faces may be different diameters (turbo vs. non-turbo) but the 'fiche shows the same valves for both. The '87 has a non-water cooled turbo and I think the '89 may be water cooled but that's just a matter of plugging the coolant port on the head. Be careful to get the correctly threaded kind of plug.
