yes chris does them... i designed the 20. 16v nova set.... but there are differences from engine to engine..... the kit is ideal for the mk2 astra 16v engine but needs mods to go on the cally/cav/mk3 engine

wel it will be a struggle if ur puttin a 2lre in, some say to take of 10mm if the copper pipe before putting ur hose on so thers more room for the engine and it wont be fouled be the inet manifold... make sure u file off the stub in the rear of the manifold..

you can also use a smaller hose, i borrowed one of a citro?n.

the original hose is quite thick and you don?t want that ;)

already cut the copper pipe down, dont think my manifold needs anything cutting off it. May ne wrong though.
