I have got the engine ready to drop in.

do i have to change the fuel tank as i am running a competetion fuel pump, would this be ok to fuel the 16v engine.

would i still have to use fuel regulator?

i have got the nova gsi bottom pulley for the 16v engine.

i have also got the top water hose off a corse.

is there anything else i need to do before i take me old engine out?

Throttle cable from either astra corsa or vectra the engine came from, the drivers side mounting plate not the mount itself.

erm cant think of much else, oh a piece of flexi pipe for the exhaust as they wont match up.

The tank should be fine but depends what competition one your using i am using the GSi one.

Is the engine ecotec or non ecotec if its ecotec you need the key, the transponder and the ecu to all be matching or youll be buying a new one!
