I'm sure you can use a 1.2 engine mount on the car as they are the same as the 2.0 engine mounts when you do a conversion, so the mounts should be in the same place. Why don't you just try find a working 1.0 engine? They're more powerful :look:

The 12v has the same chassis leg as 16v, not sure if this will affect you on gearbox side.

Don't ask why its happening. Converting a dead 1.0 12 to 1.2 8v

I need to know what parts are different. I'm not sure about the mounts, I expect the gearbox ones to be the same but the engine mounts could be different? What about the fuel lines, is there any difference?

Any pics of 1.0 engine bays?
