No you dont, it will fit fine. Just unbolt the mounts from your A12 and put them on the A15. Exhaust should be fine too.

If that doesnt work put a L16 in it.

I may not have explained this properly. The coupe is 1971 so has old type cross member. The engine mounts have been modified to suit later model A 12. Do I need to drop the engine A15 to get it under the bonnet.As the wiki article says the A 15 is higher.

Thanks

1971-1973 crossmembers match 1971-1973 engines
1974-up crossmembers match 1974-up engines.

only worry if you are mixing newer with older

only if you have an early a12 type x member. if you have a late model a12 with dizzy in middle, should bolt in

Thanks for that.

I had thought that I had read that you had to change crossmembers, I'm glad I thought wrong.

a14 a15 are same block, different crank/rods pistons. should go in the same as late model a12, just block sits higher, not mounts from memory

The A14 and A15 and late A12 should all mount the same...
