sorry a few more questions

1, the 8v block has a different compression ratio to the 16v block will this cause problems when fitting to the jimny head?

2, do i use the vitara alternator?

thanks again

1. Are you sure it's the block that makes the compression difference, or is it just the head that's lower on the other engine? Bigger compression rate will make more power.

2. That I don't know...
