Jasus I get the engine in first anyway.
Yea the 1.4 box will work or just get a 1.6 with gearbox that's not split from the engine
Makes it handier
Im not sure if a stainless steel manifold can be got for that engine ?

well man no worries! in my opinion the 1.6 engine code is the best version of the 1.6 engine! you can get 75bhp and 100bhp model! 1.6 AKS [97BHP} Hope this was of help!
