He he got my C20xe at last, this is what I got for £430


Engine, gearbox, 2 inlet manifolds, 2 SFI boxes, wiring loom, ECU, alternator, air flow meter, all bolts etc,

Is that good??


Having looked it over though, it doesnt have the oil level sensor, air box, starter motor or the cover plate for the bottom of the gearbox / clutch.

Will i be able to use my exsiting ones of the above from my 1.8 16v ecotec??

Wot engine mods / replacements should I do, obviously im gonna clean it all up, new gaskets etc etc.


Any help would be great. Also shold i renew any of the wiring, Ive heard something about the knock sensor wiring but not sure whether its true

Many thanks

James

You know dropping that engine off cost £173.97!!!!

£70 derv

and

£103.97 to replace the renforced tyre that blew at 75mph on the m40 nearly killing me and barnes and almost scratching the paint on a big lorry.

I hate Oxford and I aint ever going back.....

See chit chat in about half an hour after I've typed "Jimbo's grand day out" it's bizzar stuff.
