Yes, the f15 is still a small block gearbox

i have an f15 in my sri nova, bit high ratio but it works. the thing is with the f15 box is it was made to fit a full bell housing not half one like the nova so when u put the sheild on to cover the flywheel it wont properly fit, but other than that fits fine.

:thumb: cheers,i've got a works type dural sump guard so the cover shouldn't be a problem...
as for the gearing can an F13 cluster be modified to fit?,saying that though i had a 1.4 16v Corsa Sport 6 years ago and that was low geared,the F15 box ive got is out of a Corsa SRi,wont it be a F15CR box? or did the F15 only come with one set of ratio's:confused:

Have a look at the code for the FD/ gear ratio.

I run a F15 with std nova shafts, as Stafford said the flywheel cover leaves a few gaps in places, but its fine.
