Does the 170 gas have the same engine as a D17 or a WD45? If not what are the differences?

Same basic engine as the D17, although different higher compression pistons, the 175 has a different camshaft.
Unless your are the lead horse the scenery never changes!!

if you had a D17 block could you put the higher compression pistons without causing any damge? Thank you for the quick response.

Not trying to be smart but the d17 226 engine is acceptable to about anything you can think of doing to one . the pocketbook or wallet is usually the limitation for that engine.
