decide that now my head gasget & clutch has gone on my daily that it was time to upgrade the power so got myself a cavalier v6 lump.
already got equal length shafts, f20 box and xe flywheel.
done abit of reserch and found out i need to add a 21-23mm spacer into the drivers side mount and into the shafts. problem is the mount i got has got the aircon on so im abit stuck weather i can still use this and just remove the aircon pump.

any info on this conversion will be really helpful

thanks:thumb:
