right here goes:
i started off with my 1.2 corsa and i put a 14nv engine in it out of a astra, i then found out htis engine is the same as the nova sr.
now im looking at fitting t40's i need to know what shape ports my head will have.

do all 14nv engine use the same head with the same ports or will mine be different as it was out of a astra?
if it the same as the nova sr then ill get the inlet manifold for the sr1.4
thanks

All 14nv have squareports, whether its a nova sr, astra etc etc.

The engine is entirely the same.

if your fitting 40s your obviously into tuning. Why not change the cylinder head while your at it. 1300 head and correct manifold would make a difference espically if it was gas flowed and worked. The sri head would be best although, but if you don't or can't get it the 1300 would be better breathing with the 40s
