Is it a big job to put a 1.4 16v into a nova?

No, use the nova mounts, corsa ones wont fit a nova.

Use nov shafts too.
Goes straight in.

I have a 1.6 16v in mine.

yea should do, reason you need an 8v one is because its single v belt. just use that alternator, the bracket off the 1.2 and the belt

You can keep the standard wide belt alternator setup, its a tight fit to the chassis leg, but it does fit and doesn't rub.
I use a single v setup on mine tho.
