ok thanks the stuff on valvers looks pretty good is it just going to be the £40 kit i need from there then source my own shafts

[blue_peg_16v]

yup

[donaldo89]

briliant thanks for all your help +rep

[blue_peg_16v]

dave has a group buy on shafts £130 for equal length ones but you would need hubs too

[donaldo89]

see with the hubs and shafts ,will I need to modify ones from an astra gsi or 2l cavi ?

[blue_peg_16v]

you would need to get big block hubs machined to fit nova carriers both astra and cavalier 2.0 ones are the same so they would be fine

[let_nova]

no no no, you need nova shafts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nova gte 22 pline shafts

[donaldo89]

going to put up an add for these in a couple ov weeks then thanks for all the help
