94 tsi.. 6 bolt swap .. or build 7 bolt ?

[johnsonroda27]

trying to find out if swapping a 6bolt into my 94 would require anything other then a 6 bolt flywheel ?
i know swapping a 6 bolt into a 2g is a different story.. but what would i need for the 94 for a 6 bolt swap ?
im not a noob ive had a 95 gsx .. just dont know much about the swaps for 1 gens with the 6 7 bolt engine swaps..
thanks!

Bolt and go. No changes. Except dont forget the bigger and better 6 bolt head bolt diameter.

bigger and better 6 bolt head diameter ? .. what do you mean ?

The headbolt diameter is bigger. The 6bolt requires different headbolts. Just forewarning you incase you just have the shortblock. They are also much stronger and reusable; hence, better.

If you just have the 6-bolt shortblock and you are re-using the cylinder head from the '94 dsm, then I understand you also need to enlarge the bolt holes in the head to clear the bigger diameter headbolts for the 6-bolt engine.
