Your right Ken, I do have 2.1 heads.  But all I did was put the new
Victor Reinz gasket (that can with the engine kit) to the head and
noticed that the gasket openings were a little smaller than head intake
ports.  Then I placed the gasket on the intake manifold and I could see
that the intake manifold ports were smaller than the gasket openings.
The intake manifolds are from a 1.9 (I have two pairs and they were both
the same)

I will place the gaskets on my 1.9 heads tonight to see if there is any
big difference in the port size.

Pascal,
That's interesting because I recall all those ports being pretty well
matched the last time I was putting an engine together. Could you have
the
heads off a 2.1L maybe?
