MK2 Astra 1.6 engine?
i wanted a slight engine upgrade, nothing that takes too much time or work because the 1.2 isnt doing it for me any more lol i came across a 1989 mk2 astra 1.6 in the scrappy and the engine looks like its in very good condition. question is, is it just a case of swapping the engines over? no more work necessary? because they are both carb. help would be appreciated, thanks

Yeah straight swop. I think you need the box and gsi shafts though
-
i have an corsa sri engine for sale, everything you need to fit to a nova as well
would need palleted though as im in the scottish borders
-
Your shafts will be fine but you will need the gearbox
-
i have a 5 speed f13 gearbox laying about anyway, if i use that gearbox with the astra engine can i use my 1.2 shafts?

thanks for the help. one last thing - the engine doesnt have a starter motor. im pretty sure that my 1.2 starter motor willl go on, am i right?
-
yea mate all small block starters will fit.

great thanks people. One last thing!! (honestly lol) this 1.6 engine doesnt have a distributor. But i have a nova gsi 1.6 distributor, will this fit? they look the same. thankyou!
