    difference between low flow and regular bowl?

    Hi, Does anyone know authoritatively what the difference between a low flow and an older regular toilet bowl is? I know the tank is different, I just wonder if I can replace an old tank with a new 1.6 gpf. If you know, I'd really appreciate the info! Thanks in advance. -Rich...
