xe question

[Rich]

A mate has told me you have to modify the gearlinkage? Ive never read anything on here or heard anything about it. I assumed you just use the nova/f20 linkage?

Anyone have any informatiion about this?

You have to flip the universal joint around on the end on the nova linkage.

Thats all.

Exhausts needs to modded to go round the novas 'dome' on the underside of the tunnel, but if you retain a nova exhaust and adjust the XE manifold that takes car of that. Other than that its like LLTN said, a 10 sec job of flipping the plastic universal joint.

[Rich]

Ok cheers, its annoying when you hear things like this just before your going to put the engine in when you thought you had everything covered

thanks

Also make sure you have bent the clutch cable hole down to the right.

Also, the heater matrix outlet pipe might need modding, it catches the inlet. Or is that on LETs, hmm, cant remember,Lol.

[Rich]

Yeah i heard that about LETs but ive now heard its for the xe as well lol.

Another question, do i use my normal rad/fan? I know a gsi 1 is bigger but the 1.2 will do for now

[Adam]

You can do yeah.

the heater pipe is on both engines, for they have the same inlet manifold anyway
