Hi all,
I'm new to the forum, but have researched the wealth of information available with great attention because I recently pulled my first car out of its 20 odd years of storage.
My project is to swap a 1.8 16v engine and c510 gearbox from a 2002 Fiat Stilo into my X1/9. As far as I've seen this swap has not been documented, so I thought I'll give it a try.
The engine is the final evolution of Fiat's 4 cylinder naturally aspirated 1.8l Pratola Serra engine that was previous versions in the Barchetta, the Punto HGT and the entry level version of the Coupé. In the Stilo it delivers 133hp and 162Nm of torque, not the 160+ of the Abarth 1.4 (or more for the K swaps), but plenty of power to make the X even more fun to drive.
