Re-looking at it I think your car colour is too close to that shade anyway :(

Just waiting now for my new Magnecor leads to arrive.
Had heard loads of good things about Magnecor & their customer service & delivery times. To be honest my opinion at the moment is their toss!!
Hope their leads are better than their service :)
Just read every page of your build martin and your nova is stunning I have also pmd you dude
Car looks awesome, but have to say anyone i have ever spoke to say magnecor leads are way overpriced for no gain whatsoever other than a bit of bling for the engine bay.Quote:

Hi,
Been for a small tat on the Nova tonight.
Ever since i have owned a Nova with an XE i have always been missing the cover from gearbox over the flywheel.
Picked one up the other week then dropped it at powdercoaters for a spruce up.
Now on once i had some M7 bolts. What were Vauxhall thinking..............M7 now there is a uncommon size!

Never been a fan of the pipework on XE Novas where you have to tee in the waterpipe return to the header tank. Always looks a little messy to me. Decided this week to do something about it!
Quick e-mail to Bailey Motorsport got me a water 'spout'
Then out with the drill!

Obviously still work in progress.
Will drop it off hopefully Monday to get it welded on then off to get it spruced back up.
This damn thing also broke so whilst at the welders hopefully he can do me a fix on this.

Will post some more snaps up once the welder has done his stuff & hopefully will make the bay look just that little bit neater that nobody will probably ever notice!
IMO I'd scrap the stainless heat shield - too brittle for the heat from the exhaust manifold
If you must have one - It will be cheaper and easier just to buy a new one rather than pay someone to re TIG the old one, grind up and polish etc
