Crank pins

Why are the 1,3 crank pins different from 1,6 engines?
They weighy the same (120g) and have the same outer dimensions, but the 1,6 ones have different interior configuration. Are they interchangeable?

Regards,

Carlos

Main bearings are same but big ends are different diameter as well as stroke so not interchangable!

Would have thought the larger bore of 1.6 says no.
