Maybe I'm missing something but did the chevette use the 2.6L Mitsu powerplant? I always thought different carbs will only fit certain intake manifolds and they are not interchangeable? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Chevettes boasted the mighty 1.6l engine.

One of the fastest cars I have ever seen in person was a chevette body/frame and the interior looked nearly stock except the shifter and roll cage.

Chevette transmissions had bearing failures on the average of every 40K, so if some one could get any power from that Opel lump how long would that transmission last?
