hi guys is it true that a corsa or other x16xe engine will bolt straight in to a nova without engine mounts etc?

It will physically fit on nova mounts. The pipes & wires & exhaust are a different matter

As conversions go - its one of the easiest.

Water pipes are mostly the same too - top rad hose and small header hoses are slightly diff
