Tuning Ideas on engine swaps for Cinq

[m177ens]

Hi all,

It's been many years since I was last into Cinqs and Sei's. I used to have the prototype yellow UAD 600m Sei. It had a 1242 8v engine. When I left the scene the choice of engine swaps were 1242 8v, a couple of 1242 16v's had been built and also 1108 VAD turbo.

I see now that there seem to be quite a few 1242 16v's and a few 1.4 16v's.

I know that the 1242 8v used to drop straight in and be plug and play. Without going into too much detail as I'm sure I can search for threads on here, but how easy are the 16v conversions?

Cheers

Geoff
