18E is mk1 astra afaik? 16S is probably mk1/2 cav, E18NV is after 93 single point, so sounds like astra mk3, cav etc to me, S18NV I've no idea, never heard of the "S" euro emissions bracket, the 1.8 range of engines is probably cavalier, astra mk3 that kind of thing... C20SEH is cav I believe, 20SEH is cav as is NE, 20SER I'm not sure on.

[swedge]

hmm i could do, are all cav engines big block yeah? just wondering so i can phone the scrappies tomorrow

[swedge]

anything over a 1.6 will be big block?

[Southie]

I know the location seems metal, but feedback seems okay.

[bai1ey]

dont think the 1600 cavs was big block? and i dont no if all the 1800 one was either

yeah ive saw that but look at the delivery times

[Southie]

As said though he's miles away (Hungary infact) I suppose this is why Paypal give such along clearance time for payments, incase you need a refund.

[swedge]

after some more epc research the 1.6 cav engine came with an f13 so must be small block all 1.8's and above were f16's f18's and f20's so anything above a 1.6 must be big block

Location might be metal, but I bet the pulley is made of cheese!

I've seen fake Kent Cams pulleys and the belt wears a groove in them... I'd hate to see what it does to one of those lol

[swedge]

id be happy with just a standard 1 atm lol

Still has decent feedback as mentioned Mark. CLICK (http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=3s-gte_mr2&ftab=AllFeedback)

How many people leave feedback 3 months later when the pulley shears off or the belt goes slack because it's 5mm smaller than it used to be? And compared to those, how many leave feedback 5 days after it's arrived while it's still in the box.

I wouldn't be trusting a 40 quid vernier pulley from somewhere far enough away to not give a crap whether it stays in one piece. There's a reason they cost £80+ at most places.

[Southie]

He wouldn't be still trading through ebay though I suspect if the amount of buyers who bought had complaints against his items.

[MK999]

Best start stocking up on these then if 99.3% of them work! lol

[swedge]

bring back the days when i used to walk around with my dad with 4 pile high cars beside us

[mowgli]

no, most scrappies want to sell the whole engine...

[swedge]

no, most scrappies want to sell the whole engine...

which will happen once every 2 years round here if thier lucky

[thedjse]

Im sure i have got one in my garage £15 posted :)

[swedge]

just bought one of a guy breaking an engine for £10 posted :)

[Jackroadkill]

Interesting to see a C20SEH mentioned. As far as I know there never was an engine with that designation. I could be wrong, but I think that the C20NE is as close to a "C20SEH" as there was, it being a CAT'd and differently cammed 20SEH. I do know though, that if you put "C20SEH" into eBay that things do come up.

If anyone knows any different, I'd happily stand corrected.

EDIT: Was going to say that I think I've got a pulley in my garage which you could have had, Swedge. Sorry to have missed this thread until now.

[swedge]

yeah there is no such thing as a c20seh its only a 20seh

the differences between the c20ne and the 20seh are the cam pistons and ecu, the c20ne runs a lambda where as the 20seh dosnt

Now you come to mention it, given that I have one example of each sat in my garage, with the looms and ECU's, I should have thought of that for myself!
