    any idea's which cars they were fitted to at all, was wondering as im on my way over there on wednesday and my uncle owns a salvage yard so could of checked whether he had any, mostly out of interest

    thing that got me thinking was seeing a Chevrolet Cobalt SS which i have always assumed are like the american equivilant of a vauxhall astra yet this has a 2.0 liter supercharged engine
