yes will fit perfectly but will be slightly more restrictive than a 1.6 one.

difference wont be noticeable IMO.

soo if I use the x14 inlet will it mate up ok?? but will it cause a restriction being smaller

injectors are the same, x16xe has bigger ports than the x14 but x14 can be used.

can use the x14xe injectors.

just use an x16xe loom, lower inlet, ecu.

not 100% sure but would imagine you'l need x16 injectors as they will flow more fuel. could be wrong
hope this helps

If you're buying just a block, no the head will not be there! x14 inlet will fit

It will be "stiff" in places, thats the compression building up as the piston reaches tdc.....
