   Only problem I can think of, is if the 1.6 bores are slightly bigger and I use the 1.4 gasket will the valves from the 1.6 head catch the gasket opening?

   The 1.6 head will not fit on the 1.4 bottom end.

    Always use the hg which suits the block.
    
    In your case, I dont know if the head will suit. The head will fit on, but you might find the valves will clash against the cylinder wall.
