You cant keep the same gearbox



wrong, you CAN use a the 1.6 box on an xe, just a bit of faffing about, changing clutches/coverplates etc, but using the f16/20 is a much better option in the long run


You can se the small block box (F13/15/17) but the engine will be a nats bollock from the chassis leg.
