What engine is a 16 sv?

[Vausey_Nova_Knotla]

is it a nova gte or cav engine? it says EFI ontop of inlet if that helps. I also need any wiring and fitting help to drop it into a X 1.2 carbed nova.

Is there any ways round the fuel tank swappage.

And will a 1.4 flywheel and 1.2 clutch

or will i need to bus a 1.6 clutch and flywheel?

iirc it should be a crappy big block carb 1.6 engine (although it might be the small block, but still carb and crappy lol)

[jimbob-mcgrew]

did you get that code off the corner of the cylinder head ?

i put one of these into my last nova, was a carbed lump from a mk.2 astra.

yours will be injection model from something.

its a 1.6spi cav mk3 bag of toss
Other than watching grass grow,it has to be up there as the biggest timewasting activity going

16sv aint a spi engine.
Its basically a 1.4SR engine, but its 1598cc.

Square ports, small block, single carb, dizzy etc.

Fitted to cavs iirc
