    Default Vauxhall Nova GTE Engine Tuned

    I bought this engine off of a mate a year and a half ago so i don't know all the details! I put it in my astra mk3 because i felt it was a great alternative to a 2ltr redtop just because outstanding power that came from this engine,it was wicked in the nova that it was taken out of,it skinned polo gtis!! The engine has been cammed,has a vernier pulley and has a mappable piggyback ecu,which cost the guy £650! It's also got a boost valve and k&n filter! I replaced the distributor,the arm,cap,leads and plugs all with new items and the engine has done about 3500 miles since they were put on,only reason i am selling is because i now want to try the saab turbo route as they go straight in the mk3s and want to see this engine going bk into a Nova again!

    This is a superb engine,you won't be disappointed!

    Please don't expect this engine to be brand new as it has been used,however it's also not caked in oil,just thought i would mention it!

    I also have a big valve head that needs to go as well,it's a Blydenstein big valve head,don't know the dimensions of the valves but they are big,it's also been ported and polished £200!
