B6 SOHC onto B3 block

[artyside]

Hey guys,

Just wondering. I need to get a new head for my 1995 WB Festiva B3 8v (Australia) Just wondering if I can use a 16v B6 SOHC head on my block? Would I need to change anything?

Thanks

No, the b3 only has valve notches for the 2 valve head, the four valve head won't clear. The intake and exhaust flanges are also different.

Bugger. Well thanks for that
