A mate of mine bought a pair of Nova Sport T40 carbs and 1.3 inlet manifold off me a while back, and is now looking to sell them on - I'll mention this thread to him and see if he's interested.

Cant confirm mileage but engines prob from astra or cav!

Mike
11-07-06, 01:03 PM
bugger, im after an XE with genuine confirmed mileage and a traceable history of where it was from as the car it may be going in has got to be VIC checked (due to changing chassis number to keep K reg) so it needs to be proper legit im afraid.
