16v Conversion, timing marks
Im about to put the box back on the engine, im using a 1.6 box on a KR so ive got the 1.6 flywheel etc. Question is what timing marks will i then use for timing the 16v? do i have to make some new marks onto the flywheel?
Thanks

If its too late for that, you can instead get a timing light with an advance dial in, then use the TDC marker. Alternatively, measure the diameter of the fly and use some PI calculation to work out how many mm 6 degrees of advance works out at, measure from TDC and make your mark.

either way the ignition timing mark on these flywheels is in the wrong spot!

fit a later MK1 1.8 210mm clutch kit, it'll all bolt up to the KR and your old gearbox just fine!

Wrong!!! The 210mm clutch does not fit the FD (1.6) Gearbox. Trust me I learnt this from experiance…… The clutch will just spin around on the splines on the box as the 1.8 box had a bigger input shaft spline diameter. You need a 200mm clutch, but you should realy utilise the KR flywheel mate thats the setup I have atm

What you fitted was a 16v KR clutch kit, which as you say has bigger splines
There are 2 size splines on 020 boxes, you have the std 1.5-1.8 8v size which has 24 splines, and the 1.8 16v/2.0 8v size which has 28 splines.
I know this from experience, as I also have a MK1 with a KR 16v engine and a FD box, running a 210mm clutch. Unless I'm mistaken and its not actually been driving me to work for the last 6 months
