Technical 1242 engine

Rich..the Water temp sesnors seem to be the same to me, I may be wrong, but its the same head!!
 
I fitted a 1242 punto 75 lump last weekend. I had to change the head as the stud pattern is different on the inlet. I also had to change the oil and water pump as the housing was slightly different and the crank sensor was a touch out. It turned into a bit of a long job because of this. The best result was the exhaust fix. Rather than cut and weld the pipe I got an old downpipe and ground off the flange. I sandwiched this between 2 gaskets. It was simple and there is no chance of killing your cat putting exhaust paste onto the joint which falls inside. I've had the engine 2 years. Really wish I'd stuck it in earlier.
