This. To all those who say they ditched an XE in favour of a 1.4 or 1.6 or whatever because the smallblock is more 'fun' - I guarantee you its nowhere near as fun as torque steering your way around Avonmouth lolQuote:

Granted if i could afford it, would go alloy block 2.0 16v with all steel internals, all the power and smallblock weight.

Nice video's there boffer, I do like people who know how to attack on a circuit! Making ground up on an EVO / Megan sport 225 braking & cornering proves the lightweight potential of the nova :)
For me its a c20let in a nova there effortless to drive around town and what can keep up on the straights? The people that say big block novas dont handle are the people that fit 400 suspension
the best engine is the most powerful one you can afford. end of discussion
What's the reason for you asking the question? With you having an LET and a 1.2 are you still trying trying to find a happy medium?
Keep considering to do a engine swap on the 1.2. Was thinking 1.68v gte.
It all depends on what its for aswell.id still like to build a proper smallblock turbo myself.but i have no enthusiasm to run a road going nova whatsoever lol
