No mate.
I used Gloss white. Im hoping they look ok against the glacier white paint.
Quick update:
A 1.6 16v engine should be going in in next few weeks/months :) ;)
Basically will be needing the car for work soon(will be early starts, so need 100% realiability day in, day out) and better mpg.
All 8v stuff will be for sale: Carbs,inlet,ast2, 1.4sr dizzy, 1.4sr fuel pump, 14se head, 4branch manifold etc.
PM me if anyones interested.

Hope it all goes to plan, you have a PM ;)

Have waterpump,cambelt, etc to replace. And getting the block all cleaned and painted up
The 1400 engine has developed a weird misfire that seems to come and go, but im hoping it lasts ok till June time, when my insurance runs out, so i can fit the 1600 16v. It will be entirely std for the minute, apart from a set of kent cams.

your not messing about are you ad lol

-
how come you chose the x16xe? and not the c16xe?
-
Because this x16xe came up for sale.
Not really much difference between the two.
Both have the same potential.
O, and x16xe is ?80 less insure ;)
-
cool, got everything, transponder, chip key etc?
if so might aswell for less money overall, looking forward to seeing it go together as ive considered the c16 for mine
-
Aye mate got everything.
The wiring looks entirely straight foward too
The entire engine loom just undoes from the engine in about 20secs..
Just about 6/7 wires to the ecu to wire, and a few at the transponder pickup.
And ive got the SAI and EGR to block off, which a c16xe wouldn't have. But thats nothing an alloy sheet wont sort.
So if you want a 1600 16v i wouldn't particularly hold out for a c16xe.

nice one ad!! you have to try and get in before pv :cool:
