i have a 1.3 engine, firtted a 1.4 sr head a few weeks back, but had to refit my 1.3 camshaft. the next stage was going to be fit the 1.4 camshaft, but at the moment the car seems gutless, so just wondering if there is any major difference in the 1.3/1.4 head and cam, and wheather i should bother swapping the cams, or just swap the heads back? cheers guys

Keep with the 1400 camshaft, but a 1300 head.
The 1400sr head is pants.

You will need a 1.3 inlet to fit the 1.3 head tho.

why have u put a 1.4 head on it? keep the 1.3 head and get it port n polished and get a performance cam init. but dont get too experimental about what cam to use out of the 1.3 and 1.4 cos there isnt any difference. the sri head is the better option but the inlet manifolds aparently wont match.
