For sale I have my 20XE engine and F20 gearbox that are currently in my Nova, you can come hear the engine running and I can take you out for a drive to make sure everything is working. Its coming out because I'm upgrading to a C20LET.

As most of you know these engines are the early ones which came in the Astra GTE 16V, they produced 156PS as standard. They came with Cocast head, no CAT or lambda sensor and forged internals iirc.
Here is a quote from the advert when I bought the car:
Engine was supplied to the previous owner as a recon unit from Vauxhall in his Astra GTE, used for approx 5k before I purchased the engine. Being the trusting person I am I did strip it to check! I replaced most of the gaskets, timing belt and water pump, injectors ultrasonically cleaned, plugs, filters, fully synthetic oil, powercap etc. All genuine GM parts used on engine.
I have all the GM receipts and the lad I bought it from was 100% genuine.
The engine has covered approximately 2000 miles since its been in the car.
On the way back from Scotland I managed 45mpg so just shows ho healthy the engine is (calculated using correct method not just guessing).
Gearbox is also perfect and there is no crunches or whines.
Video of first start after its been standing for over a week:

Price is £500 ono, if you pay full asking price I will also include that carbon fibre induction kit (done 4 miles max).
Everything is included, you will only need mounts and drive shafts to run this in your Nova/Corsa/Tigra etc.
For £150 extra you can buy the whole exhaust system, its a full stainless steel Magnex and looks pretty much new.
