Also had a brand new clutch, pressure plate and release bearing. Comes complete with full wiring loom, ecu and ancillaries. Can be bolted straight into something else.

bump to the top

[Welshy]

would it be possible to fit carbs to it??
if so i mite be interested mate

[novadoneitthistime]

Yeah, people fit webber 40s to these all the time. just need the t40 manifold and the alternator bracket that goes with it iirc. bish bash bosh, job done. hahahaha. tbh it runs as sweet as a nut on the injection and is a lot more reliable/user friendly then a set of snorting DCOEs......... imo. Webbers do look better and sound fooking awesome though! :-)

hi mate, what else would i need to run this in a 1.2spi?

[novadoneitthistime]

You'd need nothing? I think? pretty sure the spi fuel tank/pump would be good enough. Five speed gearbox would be necessary, unless you swopped the flywheel off yours and fitted the four speed. Actually I bet that would make a good car! Round town anyway, plenty enough grunt to pull those wider gears. and you'll be powering on while everyone else is changing gear

[AlexW]

you would need to change the fuel pump for a mpi one from a corsa/astra. and the 4speed box would problery bolt onto the engine and i think the clutch/flywheel are the same.

[Plunky]

would you be prepared to deliver mate?

[novadoneitthistime]

Petersfield, Hampshire? no way hahahahahaha. Thats over 500 mile round trip, Would be cheaper to send it on a pallet

[Plunky]

ha ha, thats what i ment mate

wouldnt expect you to deliver it yourself!

[novadoneitthistime]

Yeah I could stick it on a pallet.

[Plunky]

how much do you reckon that would cost?

[novadoneitthistime]

about £60 i think?

[Jay]

Pm on route.

[novadoneitthistime]

No longer for sale.
