i dont know but i was looking a a picture of an f20 box the other day and it didnt look any different to the f10 i fitted to my 1.2 8v
i'm sure the input shaft would be different on a f20 to a f10
and probably a f15 to a f10 but as long as u get the clutch there should be no probs

F15 and F10, are both from the same family for the "small" block series, so it will fit.
But please remember, if the F15 is off a GSi, it will be a CR box, and will slow the 1.2 8v down big time. The 1.2 is ideally suited to the WR boxes that require less power/torque.

f15 uses a pot type flywheel. 1.2 uses a standard type flywheel

plus the clutch for the f15 is a hell of a lot bigger. to be able to fit the f15 to a 1.2 8v then everything is needed, and even then it will be crap on a 1.2 8v, it will top out at about 60 mph.

lol, oh yeah, the 1.2 wont have the torque to pull it thru the gears! for some reason i had it in my head that they were trying to say a 1.2 would somehow manage to hit the limiter in all gears where as the gsi wouldnt, ill go get my coat lol! dumb smuck!

you should be able to use either type of flywheel, as long as you use the right clutch. The flat type is lighter.
