Yes folks, another car with the Legendary RED TOP Engine............
As opposed to an ecotec with some red paint on it

the seller also has one of those 30hp electric superchargers but at least he never fitted it

I fear Mowgli may have posted the wrong link... lol

[novawez]

youre fears maybe correct mr jack:roll:

[draper]

looks a nice astra aswell, although it needs some proper fitting wheels to finish it off

have i missed the point to this thread??

[mowgli]

ok it is a shed with 10 minutes mot left, the list of things wrong is a mile long.
there is no way the engine is still making 150hp
there is no way sticking a boat's bilge fan on it will get 30hp

I just think it is great that someone advertised the car as having the 'red top' when it came with it......

the bit about the ecotec is that I've recently seen a few with a painted rocker cover claiming to be 'red top'
