Hi,
My LWB Roadster engine transplant (from 1.3 A-series) is progressing, and I'm 99% sure the route to go is a 2.0l Pinto OHC with a type 9 gearbox.
Reading some threads, there is talk of needing a shallow (Capri) sump. Is this needed for road use, or only for those who go trialling in their Roadsters?
Also, does anyone know the length of the type9 + engine combo? I want to know if putting the gearlever in the existing hole is possible while leaving room for the engine up front?
If it's easier to chat, drop me a line on 07920 495291 and I'll call you back.
Cheers,
Darren.
