I've been told it won't fit not sure why as i could of had a 1.8cvh head new but was told that they woul't fit the 1.6 block as the 1.8 and the 1.6 bottom ends are very different

1 question, why? why a sierra head?

[edders]

maybe thats all he could get? i dunno its not like it flows any better than a boggo 1600 one (afaik its the same one, but dont hold me to that)

You can make a cvh head fit a zetec bottom end its quite a popular conversion. most call it the ZVH and its normally turbo'd but a few months back there was an article in FF about making an N/A zvh (which i think kinda defeats the point of the conversion but still)

I too was under this impression bbut have to be honest I've only had very limited experience with the 1.8 CVH Sierra lump
