Can anyone tell me whats involved in fitting an F15 box in a Nova?,ive got a 91' Nova SR with a knackered engine and i havnt been able to find a C14NV engine to replace it locally.
I've bought a C14SE engine and box only to find its a later Corsa engine and the box is an F15 with the bigger flywheel that wont fit inside an F13 casing.
Is the gearbox a straight swap, i.e are the driveshafts and mountings the same? or am i going to have to modify the starter position on the block so it will meet up with the smaller flywheel and stick with the F13 box ???
Any info you can give i would be grateful for,cheers:thumb:

im running an F15 casing with a F13 cluster in there.... its no different to any other small block box from a mounting point of view...

I use a F15 box, with a F10 fly/clutch and starter.

All fine.
