i'm removing an 8v engine from an astra to go into a nova,
will the mounts be the same or will i have to use the mounts off the nova engine?
i'm sure they will be in the same position on the engine/box so just a case of which ones to use to get it to fit

You use the 2 Nova gearbox mounts, then depends on what size engine it is your fitting for which engine mount to use !
If its a 1.4 or 1.6 8v then you'll be able to use the origional Nova engine mount, but if its a 1.8 or 2.0 8v then you'll have to lower the mount about 40mm for it to line up.
