Rover 3.5 V8
Inline 4 is for homos. Vee power is where its at :D
i think you lot are right, theres no replacement for displacement, it would mean just another month of waiting for some body's,
well maybe a bit more as id want to sort the chassis out :)
coilin smith will do me a complete conversion (everything) for £500 delivered to my door :)
^ everything being?

engine, box, shafts, hubs, cv's, mounts, loom, ecu,
the main problem is trying to find it local enough, to make it worth buying,
the nova wont make 20miles, and would cost £20 to do 20miles in the troll lol
so id need it delivered
£500 isnt bad delivered when you think of the weight involved.Quote:

Perfectly suited to the Nova/Corsa.
There is more to life than just POWEERRRR.. You need to think about weight over the front wheels, torque and the delivery of that power :)
