1.8 8v

Post by Lo & Slo_Bunny »

Guys do i have to line bore (lynbore) my block if i buy new crank caps. I lost the original crank caps of my HV block and i managed to buy new 1.8 HV crank caps from another guy that was stripping his engine. Is it necessary to have the block linebored because an engineering company charged me R1500 to have my block linebored.
