Building a saab corss and going for f23 instead of old f20s or f28s . I know a few zlet bs have been done but which version of the box. The vectra f23 mounts look closer to the corss ones that the zlet f23s as the mounts on top of the box

Far easier to use the old f20 or f28 for a corsa b conversion of any sort because of the mounts,hydraulic clutch and gear cables that you will have to convert to for a f23 conversion.Will be easier just to use a saab box than a f23 as it`s virtually a f25.

modifying to fit the saab box will be the same amount of work as the f23!
