Hi Guys and Gals
I have a CU engine but most of the exhaust studs are snapped off or buggered, have tried Helicoiling but made a right lash of it.
I also have the engine that was fitted in the van when i bought it, it appears to be an early type 4 2.0 from a bay but can't make out the engine code.
My question is can i fit the heads off the older 2.0 on to the CU or are the heads on this engine unique to this build code.
Thanks
CU cylinder heads ?

Re: CU cylinder heads ?
cu and cj heads have different exhaust ports so your exchangers wont fit

Thanks for that

You could try(if all else fails) drilling out the holes to a slightly larger size
& tapping them to suit a bush or a bolt.
Then drilling & tapping to suit your head bolts.
Basically using a screwed piece of steel bar as a
filler & retapping to take your Cyl' Head Bolts.
If it works on a steam turbine alternator in a power
station it should work for your engine block!
Hope this helps & best of luck.
