    Whats the difference between 1.6 and 1.8 corolla header?

    I'm ordering my new headers finally this week and want to know whats the difference between the 1.6 and 1.8 liter header for 93-97 corolla. I know my car is a 1.8, but when I ordered it the O2 sensor bung didn't match up. My car came with the screw on O2 sensor and not the one where you tighten it up with the 2 studs from the header. So basically I need a 1.6 cause I noticed it has the screw in O2 sensor bung. So if I get a 1.6 will it fit my 1.8 motor so I don't need to get a new O2 sensor so that I don't have to getto rig it on like I did with my Focuz headers.

    I've been told the 1.8L header will fit the 1.6L engine, but I never asked about the opposite scenario. The only difference between them is I think the 1.8L header is a couple mm taller than the 1.6L one. Try asking an eBay seller or something though.

    The 1.6 header won't fit the 1.8 because, as 94 said, it's a little shorter.

    Just take it to an exhaust shop and have them weld a bung in for you.

    1.6 have a screw-in o2 sensor while the 1.8 is a flanged o2 sensor which you have to use a slotted socket to take it out.
