Had my nova since Dec 04 and been doing little things here and there since then. Started off as a mk1 1400 SR that already had an XE engine but it had a porous head and quite alot of piston movment when I removed the head. Ended up buying an engine which was advertised on here but it was never running right even tho I had it rolling roaded at 189bhp so ended up selling the carbs and and going back to standard injection with just cams. Until the MOT a few days ago I was running kent supersport cams (didnt know what cams it had until I removed them) which are too big for my setup now and were causing problems with the HC gases on the emissions. Now got standard cams and a years mot but its running really well. Dont know what to do now as it seems just as quick without the cams but doesnt sound as good. Here is some pics anyway as I have never posted any.
