5 into 4 does it go?

I have a 4 speed Nova 1.2 and am thinking of fitting a 5 speed box. Does this work? And are there any pit falls.

many thanks H

Pretty much a straight swap as long as the gearbox is an F10/13/15. You will need to modify your gear lever slightly but that is easy to do

As above easy to do, but the 5spd wideband box will make your car feel slower
