Engine swap

[stockcar123]

Hi I have a 1.2i single point Injection nova I want to put a 1.3sb mk1 astra engine in it which means I will have to put the single point injection stuff onto the 1.3sb the only thing I'm not sure about is what distributor to run on it as I don't know if the 1.2i dizzy will fit onto a 1.3sb help on anything else should worried about not working on it

you'll need a delco black cap dizzy

[mowgli]

please explain why you want to fit the spi stuff to a decent engine? is this for a competition class? if not, chuck it away & stick to a carb.

Ye doesnt the 1.2i have the Delco distributor on it

[millworm]

no it has the 3 pin bosch one, witch is pin drive not slot drive

Ok mate cheers can the 1.3 still use the same Ecu and that

Are you trolling here?

What's the reason from going from a 1.2 to a 1.3?

Seems pointless, the 1.2i injection and ecu will be so restrictive, as it is on a 1.2.

precisely.


a 1.2 spi has about 45hp...
a 13sb, has about 75 hp on a good day.

why stifle it?
