Whats involved in putting an X16XE engine into a 1.0 Nova?
My brothers got a Nova he's either going to scrap or sell for scrap value, and i have an X16XE engine. I'm sure you can see where i'm going here 
I've only got the bare engine with an ebay inlet manifold and standard exhaust manifold. Obviously i'll need an F13/F15 gearbox, maybe a wiring loom, bigger brakes and no doubt better suspension, but what else will i need? Driveshafts, electric stuff, anything like that i don't have a clue about!
Wouldn't mind making a GSi rep/track car
