    Welcome to the forums. No you can't. Easiest option if you're looking to make swaps like that is simply swap to a complete J4 engine (VTS engine). There's a good guide if you search for it. Pretty straightforward

    it is possible to fit the vts head to the 8v block

    as my piston rings are gone i was advised instead of buying a 16v block to rebuild and swap over but to get a 1.4 block and bore/hone it out so there is a tighter fit to the piston rings as another 16v block may also be worn and then adapt the 8v botom end to accept the head but this is alot of hassle and not worth doing if you dont know what your doing

    yes you can get one but all it is is a european furio nothing special they might have disc rear beam but still a 1.4 8v, only the 206 came with a 1.4 16v but tis completely different to a TU engine
