mertle, its for when im over there. i have a large shed to fill....
ben there has been one ive actually seen, 2 iuve heard of but not seen any pics etc and the one i did 3 years ago as a mock up to see what fitted where. ive been collecting bits for the past 6 months, as certain bits like the mount are not availale is aus.
how come you never finished it if you had the engine in as a mock up? and i presume the vectra mount will act as a conversion mount for the v6?Quote:

1 x corsa c v6 for the big doubter (rob)
nice but the cambelt end mount isnt oem, its made as it uses the corsa c rubber. and infact it looks like the powercrazy mount. looks nice though. i didnt doubt you mate, just the fact of pics or gtfo (jk)
ive got a 3.0 v6 engine for sale rob, and all the vectra x25xe loom sensors inlets sump etc, everythin u need for a fwd car. ive had it for a while but im not going to use it now plans have changed.
Can't remember. I want to say it was that minty green colour but I can't find the vid of the run to check :(Quote:

Was minty green, with morettes. Memory not so bad afterall lol
'scuse the crap screen grab, the vid is low quality

yeah its "liane" the powercrazy one, thing is i thought it had been broken up. strange
It might well have been, it was a few years ago now. Looked tidy enough.
Any idea why it was scrapped?
Why not use a newer v6?
i did get told he couldnt sell it for what he thought it was worth. tbh it was a bodge job, it had a f20 in with cut and welded shafts and the ugliest most dodgy mounts ive seen.....Quote:

the 3.2 is the z32se, its alot more complex wiring wise, but it is do-able. this is the engine ive bought the mount off. its the same as the earlier ones but bored out. the x25 is poo, its gutless and has too much egr crap.
Fair enough, I never got a proper look at the running gear.Quote:
