Cylinder head.

Hey all, good weekend at Bug Jam anyone?!
I was wondering, would a cylinder head off a 1.3 fit on my 1.1 block?
And also has anyone tried shoving a polo GT camshaft in the head, if so, what sort of performance difference did you get? I am assuming it would cam it up slightly, lobes look a little bigger.
Cheers, Will.

Anybody got any idea about the cylinder head?

Hard to know unless someones attempted it?

Might be an almost identical head with the displacement being the only difference between the engines.
Camshaft changes are a minefield for the unwary, its unlikely that just swapping a 1.3 cam into a 1.1 or vice-versa will do anything other than kill power/torque/economy/emissions or a combo of all the above.
In other words it has to be matched to the application and needs to be studied before you do it-or try to. :)
