Hi there

I am about to buy a salvaged BBY engine to replace the existing one (cam belt broke at speed). The model numbers are the same.

Are these engines different for an automatic to a manual or can they be adapted by changing the flywheel.

Many thanks for your help.

The engine should be the same, the fly wheel will should bolt up the same, just make sure that you install a new spigot bearing in the end of the crank as the auto dose not use one.
