I've just invested in a lovely GSi lump, 40k on the clock, owned from new by an elderly man. Full Vauxhall Service history.
I have one of two options:
-Firstly, get the GSi engine, and stick it in, meaning i've got to change, all the petrol lines, tank, and then got to rig it up to my loom.
OR
-I could invest in a set of T40's. Now, I know the 1600T40 would be VERY quick, I just have a few things which im not too sure about.
What head do I use for the t40's, can i use the 1.6 one, as it is MPi?
If not should I use my modded 1.4 head, which would mean i could put my webber on it for the time being, til i can afford the t40's.
Can i put my piper cam out of my 1.4 into the 1.6?
What would be the most powerful way i could get my 1.6 lump running?
I have a 1400sr with cam, modded head and a webber.
Could I just stick the 1600 lump on the bottom end for a while, basically my 1400 tope end?
Thanks for any help, I know some things about this, but just need to clear them few things up. I am planning to stick the engine in either at dec, 1600srt40 (when im 18) or just stick on the 1.6 bottom end, at the end of may.
Thanks
