[Vwdiesel] 1.5 displacement increase?

[Rudy]

I'm pretty sure the 1.5 had a different dimension from center of Piston Pin
to top of Piston.

Mainly a stroke difference in the 1.5->1.6->1.9 (1.9 also has a larger
bore):

I know the 1.9 block is ~3/8" taller than the 1.6 block.  Not sure if the
1.5 and 1.6 blocks are similar or not.
