with 1595 cc engine. The engine number stamped above the petrol pump is 313161, but in the registration book it is given as 2537193. The chassis number is 965070 8V 821902. Could you please tell me if this is a high or low compression engine ?
Is it possible to change the threespeed gear-box fitted to a four-speed one without major alterations?
A Vauxhall Motors has confirmed—from the numbers you have given us—that the engine in your vehicle is fitted with a high compression head.
It is possible to fit a four-speed gearbox instead of the three-speed already fitted. However Vauxhall point out that it is necessary to change the propshaft and the gear-change linkage which is both expensive and difficult.
