I have a 6-speed box which is going to be converted to front wheel drive for a astra mk2. Ive had one in the past but all the converting work had already been carried out so Im still a bit in the dark about it.
The problem is that one of the engine mounts is totally diffrent.
the monut that has the gear linkage fits no problems its the one at the front that is diffrent.
So does anybody konw of a mount that will fit?
Also will the astra 16v linkage arm select all 6 gears or does that have to modified?

By the way it has "getrag" wrote on it and dont look nothing like any of the "F" boxes

Getrag were the producers of all F28 geafboxes.

A Cavalier Turbo front mount will fit. I have a feeling its the same as all the Cavalier and Calibra 20XE mounts.

how did you get the rear mount to fit straight on??? the holes are the wrong size?

 

[Cemesis]

No they arn't, you just need to drill one hole and either cut a bit off the mount or make a groove in the gearbox.

Just had a look at a F28 in the garage, all 3 holes that you would use for a Astra/nova rear mount are defo smaller.

So will a cavalier mount fit to the astra mk2 engine bay?

 

[Ste_nova]
