View Full Version : newer vaux engines
was driving my mate mk 4 astra sxi last nite and was impressed with the power!!
just wonderin if any of these new vaux engines fit in a nova easy enough
(i know it would be reallly hard to get 1 ! )
you would be far better fitting an older version, much less electical magicary at work and moe power out the older models.
find a good 1.4 engine then recon it,you'll know you've got a sound engine then also would be much easier to find an slot near enough (depending on what engine you've got now & want to swap to)straight in
whats involved in a recon. the most hardest thing i've done is changing a head gasket so dont know if i would have the capabilities!

dont think you would be able to hone and rebore your blockl yourself
not to a high degree of accuracy ne how
thought u only had to do that if the piston rings were fucked. or if u want bigger cc.
if i didnt want that then how much work is involved?
