    Default Wanted - Measurements from a C20XE please

    Could someone with a C20XE (or LET) do me a favour and measure the centre distances between the spark plug hole recesses please?

    I’m trying to find out if the distance is the same is it is on my 1.4 16v (it’s approx 85mm on that).

    Thanks!

    I’m going for 94mm but can tell you in the morning.

    Standard pistons are 86mm and there’s 8-10mm cylinder wall.

    Thanks Craig, doesn't sound like my plan is going to work out then.

    I've found someone who's making an adaptor plate for the C20XE to allow the fitment of Audi R8 coilpacks, and I was hoping it might fit the small block too.

    Did you get a chance to measure this Craig?
