2.0 8v

[fairy145]

iv got the 2.0 8v 130 endine out of the cav and was just wonderin how hard they are to wire up to the nova loom?

[bosscav]

depends on what fueling your intending to run, carb or injection. carbs obviously easier to wire as you don't need to wire an ecu up.

Lee off here did the conversion on mine, and tbh its not that difficult to run on injection. Theres still loads of the cav wires in the engine bay that you dont need.

ok cheers lads a lad i work with is offerin to fit it and wire it up for a couple of hundred quid. is that good for the money?

[Steve]

As long as you trust him and he knows what he's doing then that sounds ok, although depending on the condition of your shell, are you getting it welded up first?

You got any pics of your car mate?

[fairy145]

the shell is mint mate best one iv had so far iv been told i dont have to weld it up if i dont want to. i cant post pics yet mate as i only have about ten posts

[Adam]

I would recommend welding it, if you want the front end the stay in the same place etc.

ok mate thanks alot

just the same as fitting an XE... so all the usual XE fitting kits etc needed.
