head gaskets gone on my 1.0 litre 12v
apparently they are a right pain in the arse to change, because of timing belts etc.
what are my options? is it financially viable to fix? do i need a new engine? anyone got one they fancy selling?
if i were to upgrade to a 1.4 is the wiring/exhaust different?
any help greatly appreciated.

they are timing chains on a 12v, and yes, exhaust and wiring is different on a 1.4

your best bet if you need it in a hurry is the same engine as you ahve everything you need to put a new engine it if you do a convertion you need everything to convert it unless you get everything that you need to convert
