conversions

lol, sounds so simple.

To the OP: dont even think about it unless you have at least £2k put away for parts, and a bit of experience with cars and fabrication. Thats looking at you doing it all yourself, tbh.

and yes it is a piece of piss to get the engine in on a hgt gearbox! if you want a gearbox i have a hgt one for sale, i can supply a mount for it to

[munkul]

ideal if you can do what i have crank on sunny jim! and as for fords and vauxhalls being so comman its because its a piece of piss to do corsa redtop i give my self 2 days to get it in fiesta mk1 running 2.0 zetec with a 1.6 limited diff rs gearbox i give my self 2 days... all bolt in on standard mounting lines! what i have done, pull out another person that has attempted it and completed..... oh hang on there isnt no one (that is known to have done it)! i was in the dark when i went to build mine, asked the same questions "how do you put a 20vt in a punto" basicly got told to f**k off, when i done it no one believe me cuz it anit comman, i had to provide a video of it running, and then people new i was pissing around, like i said u crank on and get a 20vt in your mk2 punto! i`ll put money on u wouldnt finish it!!!!!

well well. Im not saying what im planning, tbh.

What do you do about the hgt box being a push type clutch and the coupe box being a pull type clutch?

What about the intemediate shaft with the viscous coupling? It won't fit the hgt box, the hgt intemediate shaft is too thin for the coupe intemidiate shaft mounting, being too thin the holes don't line up between the hgt and coupe driveshafts.

Then you've got smaller issues like the lift up reverse, gear linkage etc. Both mounts would need to be custom (to the leg and front beam). The fact a Hgt box breaks with half the torque of a coupe lump also dosen't help.

I would'nt say that was straight foward, you'd have less work fitting a coupe box that won't break.

nope the wiring is totally custom off my own back, no company would attempt it, and i phoned up and down the country, all i got was " you couldnt have picked the worst 2 fiats to put together"

I bet you rang FIAT anyway you bozo. There are endless companys who will be glad of the work given the economy...


Sounds like the same old Bollocks...

i havent looked into anything to do with doing a 16vt conversion into a mk2 punto, i couldnt tell you if the gearbox would fit or not, and tbh i dont care i anit attempting it or f**k all
