I've been offered a cheap c20ne out of a carlton will it fit a nova with it being out of the carlton? Any difference between the c20ne out of a mk2 astra gte 8v and this? It should have the fwd mount holes in the block ect. :thumb:

I've heard the sump is different dont know how true this is? Also I have noticed the dipstick tubes are different it has the breather metal pipe on it's own and the dipstick is near the cambelt side.

Can the dipstick be blanked off and use the one with the breather tube like on the other 8v's? Iam gonna be turboing this engine and where the dipstick is its gonna fowl the manifold.
