C/R, bore, stroke etc are the same.

[Mike]

Dont know, but why would you want to?

[turbo-boy]

Same questions were asked last week.
Oil pump has some differences on the late/C16 for belt tensioners.

Personally I have found differences between E16SE's early & late. The blocks can look massively different in there castings.

What is the engine code you have now? E16SE0xJ Match the letter in bold with the letter prefix on your block & they will be from the same batch.

My GSi was an 02K, but I bought a GTE engine with an 02E prefix & like I say the differences were very apparent. All the internals are compatible however.
