u can put in a 1.6 yea, but if u want to use the injection on the 1600 engines u will need to fit the fuel tank+pump+lines and wiring from the 1.6 gte/gsi.

much easier doing the 1400 conversion mate!!

i belive some guides will be going up shortly on howto do these exactly

Look on NovaTrader there is an advert for "(FS) Nova GTE (smashed)" Price ?350.

Everything you need plus more by the sounds of it...

there is no hassle in puttin in the 1600. the only wiring you need is the engine wiring. you'll need to mount a pump somewhere near the tank and wire that off ignition 2 or off a switch. as for the tank as long as it has a return feed it's perfect. i used the tank off a "92 1.2 last month to do that conversion for a mate :D
