I found it hard to understand what you were saying there.

A 1.3/1.4 camshaft will fit into a gsi engine. But if its a standard camshaft then i would keep the original gsi camshaft.

The 1.3/1.4 head will fit a gsi block. But when you try to fit the standard gsi manifold it wont fit. So i would not bother changing that either.

hope this has helped friend

the housing will fit but you'll need to fiddle with the breather seperation system and possibly coolant pipes

can you explain in other words??
and a 1.6s engine cam fiting will do better?

the 1600 gte engine has a pipe running from the oil breather hole directly to the cam box

the 1.4sr engine has a short pipe running to an oil seperator and then a pipe feeding back into the airbox

this means the routing of the solid plastic/metal waterpipe on the rear of the engine is different

and the 1.3 cam fitting ?
