bought a corsa gsi today really cheap,
in the nice grey colour with 109k mot till march and has loads of reciepts with lots of money spent. doesnt smoke or anything and goes really well, but the engine sounds really loose if you understand what i mean with a hint of piston slap.
but the body work it very tatty, but the bumpers and skirts aer still good,
what to do with it?
break it? and use the engine for my nova which had just had oil pump failure on the x16xe.
spend the money on a blow over and sell it?
cant aford to keep it as already got 2 cars on the road.
if i was to keep the enigine what bits from my x16xe should i use to make the best engine from the 2?
obviously use the inlet box,does it just bolt on the same? and use my s/s 4 branch manifold.
suggestions?
