GA16 (don't hurt me)

[Harlen]

I know, the classic GA16 topic. I've done a lot of research and understand that I have the choice of cutting into the chassis rail or fitting an electric pump for it to be a straight fit. This isn't a problem.

However I have a couple of things I want to be entirely sure of before I go out and spend my wonga on a 1.6:

1) Will my standard 1.0L gearbox work with the GA16?
2) What's the deal with NATs? Is the 1.0L ECU plug and play?

Massive thanks in advance. :grinning:

1, only if its a post 98 1.0
2, you could use the original 1.0 ecu if you keep the CG throttlebody

Frank, you're a bloody star. Is there anything else you think I should keep in mind other than these few things?

i would guess the radiator pipes will be custom, and the exhaust will be hybrid or custom eh :grinning:
