16v head on a 1.7L engine

[sfwilliams@home.com (Scott F. Williams)]

Jerry, this is possible, but also entirely pointless. You'd end up with a
horrifically low compression ratio (maybe 6:1? -just a guess) and more
weight/complexity. I suspect that you'd end up losing power, too. Don't even
consider it.
