    Ive just been out to the garage to get the instructions that came with my stud kit and I quote "The studs should be wound in each hole (recessed end) until you feel them locate at the bottom of the hole".

    Alright Mate. New to migweb and still trying to find my way around. I in the process of my first project (5dr Astra 2.016v Astra Sport) which i am planning to put the c20let into i have already began the process of stripping it all down by removing the front wings bonnet,bumper,headlight etc . I was just wondering if you could give me some advise as to weather the front end requires seam welding before fitting the engine please. Quality work as well mate i only hope i will be able to reach the standards you have achieved.

    Lovely work there. Although the yellow / blue colour combo just doesn't work for me. Cracking job though.
