Jules, there should be a flat spot on the bottom of the engine which will
have the 2 or 3 letter code and then some numbers which indicate date of
manufacture.  Bentley lists a variety of codes for 1.8 gas, non 16V
cars(ACN,AON,ASF,ACL,AUG,9A,ACD,AEN)  Most of these I've never seen or even
heard of but find that code and I can tell you what the ratios are.

(got to find that old VW&Porsche article w/ the ratios listed for everything)
