will the newer 16V 2.3 head bolt onto the 94 2.3

94 lngbd · Aug 9, 2009

I have a 94 2.3 8 plug 4 cyl & was wonder how much more power & torque would be available if a 16 valve head was bolted onto the block & if it will in fact work & what all would be needed to allow it to work properly.

Thanks in advance for any info.

There is a 16V Lima head?

What im wondering is will the 16valve head from the 2006+ 2.3 block bolt onto the older 2.3 block. I realize that I would need to swap pistons as well. But just curious.

Oh, the Duratec head? No... Totally different engines... The only thing they share is the 2.3L displacement...

No, the two engines have nothing in common. Completely different beasts.
