What Omega engine?

2.2 LY22xe I think. Sorry if I'm speaking nonsense. I'm 17 just got into cars.

Np -  funnily enough my First manta was when I was 17, 1month before I turned18 though - did a straight swap for a Kadett C 1.2s

it’s virtually the same as the the c20xe conversion, that is well documented on these forums, key words are Redtop and c20xe.

Manta 1.8 parts, sump, engine mounts, gearbox & propshaft will make it the simplest of getting the engine sat in there. Then it’s Fueling etc.

Twin Webber with a Nodiz electronic ignition would very straightforward for fueling etc. But it all depends what model Nanta you start out with. Pro’s and Con’s to each.

Take a read of these.

It does fit but it's a little more work than the 20XE as stated. Definitely worth it though.
