differences between 1.8 16v and williams engine?

[lawrence]

at a first glance how can you tell the difference between the 2? At 2nd glance ie pulling, prodding, pointing and studying how do you tell the difference?

 

[donsrno1]

At 1st glance - you won't tell the difference, lol. I'm not totally sure but I think the willy starter motor is different and the willy has strengthening veigns on the block. I'm not all that sure though so I'll let someone else advise you.

It's as they are so similar that loads of people don't bother to declare it to their insurance if they drop a 2.0 in a valver - unless your unlucky they are never going to tell it's a willy engine.

williams have a larger bore and longer stroke.
the engine no is F7R, rather than F7P

The crank shaft is out of the diesel engine i believe, you wont be able to tell at a glance but the williams has a wider suspension set up and the wheels will 'fill' the arches more when compared to a valver.

Suspension isn't engine

Manifold (although they are interchangable)
White dot on dipstick (although they are interchangable)
Smaller starter motor (but hidden under a heat shield)
Engine code - F7R (as opposed to F7P on 16v)

If it's in a car, Williams standard hits limiter at 6500rpm.. and it pulls from 2kRPM.

ok cheers guys,

lol i know the difference between a valver and willy mate, i said at first glance so i wouldnt be able to tell a crank from a crain

 

[Ben j]

easiest way is a willy has a round manifold

Awrite Awrite i was just adding to the comments

 

[lawrence]

just kidding mate,

i thought the valver and willy manis looked different but as has been said interchangeable, just got to go with engine numbers i suppose

 

[cat171]

The engine number is a b*tch to see.

Hmm..
I have 1.8 16V Clio and i was wondering, what kind of job is to put 2.0L block in that engine? Is the Cylinder head same?

Is it problem to get 150-200hp of that engine? Does Megane 2.0L 8v block go straight to 1.8 16V engine?

What about drive shafts and transmissions?

 

[AmirClio]

You can use the bottom end from megane 2.0 16v or a williams as they are the same and they will fit your valver head. Its not a big job ive just bought a hybrid lump to go the valver, all you need is a an engine crane, some rachets, lots of tea and somone who knows what there doing! To get 200bhp your looking at throttle bodies, a properly worked head, cams, remap so on and so on!

 

[C18]

Is 2.0L Williams better transmission as 1.8L does?

What about driveshaft? Where i can get "cheap" high pressure pistons to 2.0L engine?

 

[C18]

Is meggy 2.0 8valve and 16valve block same?

Can i use meggys crankshaft with no problemo ?

What compression rate i get with 2.0L meggys pistons and block and 1.8L cylinder head?

 

[Dan@SJM]

Just get forged pistons. www.ap-developments.com

 

[C18]

It's very hard get those pistons to finland

About the block, is 8valve 2.0L meggy's same as 16valve 2.0L meggy's block?

 

[donsrno1]

no the 8v block is not the same as the 16v block unfortunately.

 

[donsrno1]

also, you can just use the same driveshafts.

I can supply pistons and post them to you.
