If anything, put GTi6 mani on. Dowel pin is in wrong position but all else match. GTi-180 won't fit, completely different engine.

You can remove dowel pin from head of drill matching hole in manifold flange.

Not quite true.

6 speed box is one of the weakest in the range. ME type will take the power without a problem.

Regarding 4TC engine, it was the same 2155cc 4 pot unit as fitted to the 505 Turbo (which was originally designed by Simca in the late 1960s).

Front struts, putting apart?

Hi,

Has anyone put apart front struts? is that top bit screwed or pressed in? Guess it's screwed, right?

Thanks!

I'd me more worried about main and big end bearings and piston sealing rather than cambelt. Turn it over by hand while having plugs out and injectors/ignition off. Then crank it the same way for a minute or two. Prior to turning it over I'd also spray some WD40 into cylinders and leave it a bit. Che...
