Seen a few corsa's, but not a Nova that i can remember.

Are you sure your not planning on steering around corners :lol: :lol:

[Matt Pickering]

Yes it can be done a friend of mine done one with the 2,5 v6 engine, you can also use a 3.0 v6 motor and usung the 2.5 loom to run it !!

loads of them knocking about

was a real shed of a saloon at pv 04 i think with a v6 in it :lol:

There was a nova on ebay a while back with a V6 in, can't remember if it was a 2.5 or a 3.0 tho.

if you do decide to do it i have a nice v6 in the way so send me a pm if your interested

[novarobbo]

you can use a 3.0 lump with the 2.5v6 inlet and loom ect.. all the bits of the 2.5v6 onto the 3.0 lump.. but you want to use the 3.0 ecu for more power.. afaik..

actually what it is is the 3l v6 with 2.5 heads and inlet plus management with 3l cams.

oh ya and fit a c20xe flywheel

[novarobbo]

or a lightened and balence v6 one and dont for for the f25 gearbox.. go for the f20 or f 28.. far better

robbo

[burgo]

to fit an f20 you have to use the c20 flywheel

[novarobbo]

yup.. but if you stick with the f25 you deffinatly need an lightend and balenced flywheel
