its a straight swap, you can use your gearbox ect...., possibly the easiest conversion to do.
Im not sure if the ignition is different or not, but just to make sure get the coil off the new engine.

Yeh think that what you said is correct. If the engine needs a orange cap dissy then fit that and wire the 1400 coil and module into 1300 loom.

hi all rite the 1.4sr engine has a orange/browny colour diss cap on it i no i need to change the coils over now instead of the 1.3sr one wot else needs changing thanks matt
nothing mate
youll be fine now :lol:
Split the box fron the engine, disconnect everything, lift the engine out and throw it away like the Increadable Hulk, stick the 14sr in, bolt her up, reconnect everything, run over to your old engine, take off the dizzy cap and leads and carb and inlet, stick the dizzy on the 14sr and send me the carb and inlet please. Thank you. :D
