whats up everyone,
    I have been working on my 87` samurai and want to put a 1.6 head on my 1.3 block...  Can that be done or is it better to just drop the whole 1.6L in with the EFI.   Also I have a new cam and headers for my 1.3 and was wondering if I put the 1.6L head in will the can and header fit?  Hope for some help here...  any other tips will be greatly appriciated.  aloha from hawaii

i know some guy's that used a 1,3 top on the 1,6, so it should go the other way also.

but a 1,6 is a more potent engine, dont know if the exhaust fit

1.6 header fits a 1.3 and visa versa...heads are the same way...you will have less low end torque with a 1.6 head, but better top end... a 1.3 head on a 1.6 gives you better low end torque, worse top end speed... cam should fit, not 100%.

your better off putting in either a swift gt motor or the 1.6l motor

your better off putting in either a swift gt motor or the 1.6l motor

keep in mind that the 1,6 engine is 1" taller than the 1,3.

also don't forget that the 1.3 head has the fuel pump in it, and the 1.6 does not.  So, you'll be needing a new fuel pump of some sort.

heres a link to a guy who swapped in the swift gt motor(1.3l DOHC) into a sammi....

and heres one of a guy who did the 1.3l head swap on a 1.6l block and dropped it in a sammi...

Headers will bolt on but the 1.6 has bigger ports than a 1.3 so you may lose some of the benefit. 1.3 camshaft may not fit a 1.6, there is a difference in length between some models, even if it does you need to check that there will be a performance gain over the stock 1.6 cam. The 1.3 carb is very restrictive on a stock 1.3 so you may not get any big performance gains without changing to a bigger carb, 1.6 inlet and manifold also has bigger ports.
UK carb model 1.6s have a fuel pump on the head

I'm doing the 1.6 8V with the 1.3 head and intake in my rig as soon as:

#1. my current motor dies (which that's probably not likely..lol)
#2. the summer wheeling seasion is over

plan on swapping in the 16v pistons from a 1.6l 16v into the 8v block if the 1.3l head is 16v

G13BB engine is the same as the Jimny, with the EFI it makes 80bhp - same as a 1.6 8V. Downside is that it is higher revving with less torque and max torque around 1000rpm further up the rev range. G13BB head on a 1.6 should be pretty good, I'd like to that to the Jimny eventually but the stock engine only has around 30k on it.

a stock G13B makes 100hp not 80. putting the G13B head on a 1.6l 16v block will give it more torque, turbo it will make it a torque monster!
