    Arches look fantastic. Have you posted a spec of the engine yet?

    Thank you guys for the compliments

    I've seen your nova on corsaforum.de
    I never thougt someone outside germany/switzerland/austria would read my thread at corsaforum.de

    Have you posted a spec of the engine yet?
    Nope, but it's pretty standard. Just a little higher compression ratio than original. But that will change soooooooon!

    so heres the last of my posts, as it is the nearest to the current date.
    converted my rear breaks to dics with the m-tech conversion-kit.




    axel is not fitted yet. will happen in the spring


    and i put my nova back in the shed where it now sleeps

    thanks a lot for the comments!

    did you ever have the e16se dyno'd? any spare bits left over?
    unfortunately not, the engine never ran long enough to test how much bhp it produced.
    there are a lot pieces left over... for example the whole cylinder head wich im going to sell.

    what do you do for a living by the way ?
    I'm a trained car mechanic, but working now as a IT Supporter in a company that sells solar shading systems.
