    Do a few search's mate, been covered alot.....basicly the same engine though, however the heads differ, if you want to use the Megane head you need to get it adapted to accept the dizzy cap.

    megane lump is better as a whole working unit. to spice it up a bit you can put the williams std cams in the megane head as they run tamer cams as std as the head is superior. i'd stick with the meggy lump and tune that.

    Agree if you've a 2ltr 16v megane engine already don't remove it.

    I'd sell the willy lump for 750 and get cams/remap.

    top end stock a williams will have it, megane more power through the range.

    bear in mind the megane has very tame cams in comparison to the williams.

    they can but depending on the megane head casting the bit where the thrust flange is can be the wrong width.

    4 or 6 or so mm are the 2 widths.
