Guys,

I'm starting to fit a 1600 16v engine on to an F20 box tomorrow to go in to a customers Nova rally car. Am I going to have any prob's using the old mounts from the car which previously had a 1400 16v engine and F13 box.

In My head I think I might have prob's with the engine not sitting square or drive shaft end float prob's??

Also the car has a Cavalier internal gear selector/stick with a Nova linkage on the box, will this fit straight on to the F20?

Thanks in advance, :wink:

well the rear mount will be in the same place as the engine is still small block length

and im almost certain the distance between the rear mount and nsf mount are the same on both big block and small block trannys

did u use X20XEV flywheel with XE clutch? or some other custom assembly?
