Please, repair and take a look at that. The V6 weights too much!!!

And I must say that the weaker part is the rear. I am currently welding new supports for the rear springs and almost the whole rear arches. And I must make them in my own, as they are no more available on stock.

Cheers.

Their some big rust holes lol if you are doing a v6 conversion use the cav inlet as its much easier than the 3L ecu and inlet as it doesnt have an immobiliser, just need to work out where the plugs go and it will be running fine

Then you've been lucky. Almost half of the novas i've seen had very important rust problems.

And the fact is that the rust is under the paint, you don't see it. Aparently, the front of my Corsa was healthier than the one of P Whack. But once you remove the paint... you only find big holes.

Anyway, had it runnig today so will be back at mine tomorrow night or wed, then just need to put the gsi dash in, side repeaters and the digi dash

Took it for a quick spin today its sooo F'in quick its untrue!!

any chance of a parts list and more info on the exhaust build??

Parts list isnt much really cav 22 spline inners with the standard driveshaft, or gsi one, custom made mount , cut a notch out of the exhaust and re weld then little bit of fettling to get in small notch out the gear box casing and cut the bolt down a little that holds it, but other than only the engine and ecu, will get a video up soon, took it out again just before and oh my god i know what not steering or being in control is like now!!!! lol

i think this thread is overdue some pics...

Well here is a video of it this any good? lol
