Hello to all,
so, i'm from portugal and i'm the proud owner of a 1989 opel corsa 1.2s(carburettor):thumb::thumb: and i'm making some mods to it.lollol
i've rebuild the engine, and i'm installing an 1.3GT/Sr pierburg 2e3 twin barrel carb with auto choke, cam and inlet/exaust manifolds.
i'm looking for some advice in terms of the fuel pump, is the 1,2 enough for the twin carb? will it provide enough fuel for the carb(i'm not racing, it's for normal use, but sometimes i have lead foot)??
in terms of oil pump, mine it's making 0.5 bar of oil pressure at idle with normal engine temperature, it's that good or bad(i'm awaiting for an haynes manual, so i'm not sure what's the minimum pressure at idle)?
brakes, will the 236mm ventilated disks and calipers of an astra direct fit in my corsa? will the corsa stock master cylinder be enough?
thank you all for the repplys
sorry for my english but like i said i'm from portugal.lollollol

Standard manual pump is what comes on the 1.3 anyway so is more than adequate.

.5 bar oil pressure seems very low even for idle my c20xe makes just under 2 bar at idle.

Yes the astra 236 vented will fit and standard master cylinder will be fine
