1.4 SR on a 4 speed box?

[Nobby]

IM buying my engine this week and was wondering weather to put my 1.0 4 speed box on to it? will it fit? will it make and differance? will it affect fuel consumption? cheers:thumb:

the 1.4 wont fit on the 1 litre box, it bolts on the otherway, also it would affect fuel consumptoin

[flashbang]

yes it will fit as my brother has put a 4 speed box on a 1.6

[Jon_nova1]

a four speed will fit, but not a 4 speed of a 1 litre

[flashbang]

yh my brother used 4 speed from 1.2

[Nobby]

oh right then lol o well! cheers

[Jon_nova1]

your brother used a 1200 4 speed gearbox on a 1600 and it went on??

a 1.2 box would bolt straight onto a 1.4 engine,

i would go for a 5 speed you just cant relax on the motorway with a 4 speed drives you mad after a while

^^^ why if you look it up the 4th gear in a 4 spped box is the exact same cog as 5th gear in a 5 speed box

ive got a 4 speed F10 on my 1.4 sr, it pulls ok. 5 speed it much better for road use. depends what your useing it for

well i thought the 4th gear was more faster/responsive and louder when i drove for a while on the motorway, but id never have another 4 speed box for road use, ever

Yup, on my old 4spd box the engine revs were lower on the motorway in 4th than on my current 5spd box in 5th,Lol.
