Hey guys,
I just picked up an 04 Rio. It came as a rolling shell (no engine or transmission), but it came with both an engine and transmission, but now I have run into a problem. I was looking at the head casting and its K4-2....well looking around online that head fits a 06-08 1.6 DHOC. So it looks like the guy sold me the car with the wrong engine. My question is can I make it work? The trunk is full of parts and accessories from the original engine. Can I use the long block that I have with the old parts and make it work, or are the engine too different to make them work with out a bunch of work?
Also, side note...are the transmissions the same in the 06 and the 04?
Thanks for any help.
