Difference in MC-1 & MC-2 engines?

[Dave Aukerman]

Very true.  BTDT on brothers car.  While going to a two-piece exh. manifold
on my brothers MC-2 car, the hack doing the work decided to free the snapped
studs while the head was still attached.  Got to the point where the head
was so screwed from the drilling (looked like you could have inserted a 17mm
bolt in the end) that an MC-1 head was put into place.  All was well.
