surviving means wining at lemans...the 924 has the special power of being very robust and forgiving...its a tank

So no one found anything close enough even if it required modification to adapt a 16v engine on the 924 block?

I am into VW engines mated to the 924 bellhousing.

So far we know that the Audi I5 fairly match and the VW LT 2.4 I6 does as well. These are more or less gasburners based on dieselblocks, similar to our 924 engine. The smallest member in the EA827 family should be the old VW 1.6D, code prefix 068:

The second gen Audi 100 had the small 1.6 fourpot as a cheaper alternative to the 924 2.0 or even larger I5.

The VW type2 (T3) had different engineoptions: the na I5 (South Africa), 1.6D and can be retrofitted with a 1.9TD (AAZ).

This part is especially interesting:

The 16V KR head does fit the AAZ block

The AAZ and 1Z share the same block casting and you can safely take a 1.9 TDI motor with 79.5mm bore all the way to 82mm with no issues(been done before). The old 1.6 H-block can be bored to 83mm.

A 1013hp 16V KR head on a 1Z block:

Maybe more engine transplant than 16V bolt-on...
