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)

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.

Yes I did fella, and its the injection one. any info reguarding the above thanks rob:thumb:
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
