Hi......
I´m new to this forum,but I´ve got a quite important question for you.
I´ve got a 1998 Marea 1.6 16V 1581 cm3.Car has no engine at the moment.I´ll have to buy one,but I´m thinking of swapping the original 1581 engine for a 1596 engine from the latest Marea or from Stilo.So my question is Will a 1596 engine fit to a gearbox and mountings of a 1581 engine?Are the blocks of these two engines mechanicaly identical?Don´t worry for the engine code or the wiring,I just need to know if the blocks of these engines are the same.I mean mountings for the gearbox and main engine mountings to the chassis.I searched,but no results.
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry for mistakes if any,but I´m not British,I´m Slovak and I´ve never been to UK......
