If it is a Sierra gearbox there will be an adaptor plate between gearbox and engine.

Most likely you have a Sierra 1.3 gearbox, could be Vit? Got a pic?
There are two different clutch/flywheels for 1.3 Sierra's.
You'll have to have a look at your flywheel to see if it is flat or stepped to ensure you get the right clutch kit.

I tried to upload a pic but failed.. I did have a little look and there is what seems to be a thin plate between the engine and transmission, it's only about three or four mm think .. is this maybe an adaptor plate or are they thicker?? are there any other features that can tell them apart??
