Depends on the bay, 2 litre or not, for bell housing and starter change, also gear ratio issues for a stock 1600. Otherwise it's a bolt-in with the right tin/engine support bar

oops, i forgot about the moustache bar. If its a 2ltr original that means i need a starter with the longer shaft and bell right?
or can i shave down the shaft and use the same box/bell housing
I will add ive had a few beers tonight so not thinking straight.....:lol:

If 2 litre, to make it bolt up you'd change starter, bell and input shaft. But the ratios would not be kind to a stocker
