I cant find a H7B in New Zealand for my SV6 manual car. Can I use a H7A motor and match it to my manual box ? Will the computer still work? Or can you swap the internals out of a H7A into my old H7B block? I would appreciate some wise knowledge,as this is my daily driver and I am driving my old mans shitty rodeo.

I can confirm 10H7A, 10H7B, 10H7C, 10H7E, 10H7L and 10H7N are all direct interchangeable engines. So you'll have no issues doing the swap. You gearbox will bolt up and just use your ecu

Well there you go any engine with those codes

Would all the different engine codes be 10H7A- auto transmission, !0H7B- Manual box. Where is the best place to buy engine in Aussie? What is the dimensions so I can get a price on freight.

No engine code doesn't note for what transmission or box is attached as they bolt up the same. Obviously flywheel/flex plate are the difference along with spigot bush. Work on minimum skid size of say 800x700x900mm
