Right, since removing the old C20XE engine out of my Calibra, I now have a lot of rrom in the engine bay, which got me thinking/planning on how to fit the C20LET & F28.
So some questions......
1) clutch cable.
Do I need the C20LET clutch cable to replace the F20 one I have. Looking at EPC, they have differnt P/N. But EPC also quotes 2 types depending on year. Does anyone know what the differance is (I think its how the cable connects to the clutch pedla, ie hook termination)?
2) speedo cable
I've got the early mechnical Turbo clocks, so I take it I need to replace my old C20XE speedo cable for the early C20LET speedo cable?
3) driveshafts
SInce I will be running the F28 in 2WD, I won't have the TX box bolted on. Hence one of the C20LET drivshafts will no be too short. I take it I can use both my old F20 driveshafts on the F28 when its fitted in the Calibra?
4) rear engine mount/gear linkage
Noticed that the F20 mount is differnt to the F28. Does the F28 enigne mount and linkage bolt straight onto the Calibra chassis and discard the F20 equilvant?
5) downpipe
I'll be keeping my C20XE CAT (although I have heard Phase kits performa better without them), but anyhow, the C20LET downpipe has a triangular flange plate (3 hole) and my CAT end has an oval flange plate (2 hole). So is it a case of modifying the C20LET downpipe to fit the CAT?
