Head Needed For 172...So...

[P4NLY]

...Ive found a breaking 182 still with engine...Im only after the head from it...are they the same as the 172 heads or will I need other bits and pieces from the 182 engine?

Cheers

Its a stright swop but the 182's use the smaller turbo block casting head which won't make as much power standard as a early phase 1 172 or a Mk2 early phase 2 car.

Where does the 182 get its extra 10bhp then? ...manifold and cams?

Exhaust manifold and sports cat (200 cell vs 400 on the 172) different back box and remap.
