DOESNT COUNT IF ITS A VAUXHALL MOTOR . that wasnt what i was gettin at after all i have an xe nova each to there own but personaly unless the motor was somthing huge v8 v12 that is had to come buy in a standard vaux then why not just use a vauxhall motor after all most of them apart from, eco wreck are bullet proof. 2.2 td in novas is what i like to see :thumb:Quote:

why?? Other engines are just as good if not better? Look at the age of the C20xe and C20lets now? Let alone the 8v's. Helps if its a vaux for fitment etc but if you can get more power/newer engines/cheaper etc why not??Quote:
