any one know if a black top head will fit on a 90bhp roller rocker grey top bottom?

why would you want to do that anyway? not entirely sure if it will fit.

i think it will fit but you will need the whole throttle assembly as its slightly different (same as the 106 rallyes if i remember right)

would like to do it as i have one on my old 1.0i motor sitting doing nothing, and if i'm going to do head work i'd like to work up the spare and change over in one day.

i know that there is no injector holes in the head on the 1.0i one, but this is ok coz i'll be putting the injectors into the throttle bodies i've still got loafing in the shed.

being an early silvertop in the car i know that the inlet ports are the same, so the manifold will be the same fitment.

the entire rocker shaft is heild on by the head bolts so i'm assuming i can put the roller setup onto the non roller head??

only bit i'm unsure of is the fact that the black top head is off an ally block and the silver is on a cast iron block.

thanks.
