No idea bout that 2l bottom end as there are many variants that have different characteristics and need blanking plates and replacement distributors.
Have a read of this thread:clickme
That will give you and idea of what you will need to think about if doing a 2l swap. Consider your insurance as well, they already are charging you like a wounded buffalo, if you tell them about this they will finish you off. If you don't tell them and are unfortunately in an incident it is easy to spot the 2l tall block has been fitted, then you might be really screwed. Crying or Very sad
