| I don't mean to high jack your thread but it seems on topic still
but is it all 1.8s that are small blocks or just x18xe's? because some astray GSI had c18xe's surely that would be a better engine? and if your on a budget couldn't you pick up a 1.8 vectra strip it and sell it on bar the engine etc?
and what about the gearboxes? F13? or F16/F20? | |

| its Z18XE's that are small block! I would go for the F15 more than likely and hopefully on to an SCCR. the c18xe and x18xe(1) are big block dude | |
