These two are the same right? Gasket sets for the 1.8 and 2.0 16v engines? I know the head gasket is the same, just not sure about the rest of it...

yes but you need the 1.8/williams one.

The muppet sellign then doesn't seem to know the 1.8 and williams are totally different from the megane thus the inlets won't go.

is the head gasket the same though? Ive wondered about this, since the chamber in the head is the same on the 1.8 and 2.0, but the bore is bigger on the 2.0.

Does the head gasket match the bore or the chamber?

bores the same, well ok less than 1mm difference. Its the stroke that makes the extra capacity.

So yes the head gaskets are the same.

Right, so basically the 'RENAULT CLIO WILLIAMS 2.0 16V HEAD GASKET SET' one is a no no? Shame, cos currently its a fair bit cheaper Laughing

I think you'll be alright with the williams one, the point chris was making is that the 2.0 auction says it will fit the megane as well, which is wrong
