Just 2 make sure does this have a dizzy cap and round ports?

I have been informed if defo has round ports.

Not sure about the dizzy, I have worked this out from images.
Cheers Jim

Also you'll want a nova 1.4 dizzy if you wish to retain the original cam, however if your using t40's I suggest you get the piper ultimate road cam with is designed for 40's, not only this but it'll also allow you to run the more common delco back cap dizzy found on 1.3/1.2 engines.

So I am looking at a e16se.
I have an inlet manifold converted with round ports.
Set of webber 40s
New camshaft?
New adjustable cam shaft pulley
Head skim/valve lapping in/New piston rings/bottom end bearings/block skim/oil+water pump/full gasket kit/cam belt kit.
four branch?
exhaust system? ( not a loud one or a daft tail pipe I like them 2 still b raspy!!!!)

Because it does not have a dizzy and I am not wanting 2 put any more wiring in the engine bay, I want 2 keep her clean and tidy.

The mk4 Astra had them, very very rare, but mk4's, despite being one of the best Astras ever made, are worth nothing

So because it doesnt have a dizzy it means it will never be able to have one.
good luck with your search.
Maybe more threads will make one appear lol
