   Was speaking to a guy I know who thinks he knows about saxos lol, he said to change a VTR into a VTS you just put the 16V head on. Now im thinking thats a bit easy, so is he talking bollocks?

   can be made to fit but it's far from a straight fit, have to change pistons as vtr ones will hit the valves, and pulleys have to be changed to vts ones and possibly a few other things which escape me at the moment. can be done but not worth the hassle really.
