[damo1]

hi guys rite im starting my corsa xe project today and im starting to write down what i need to do the job and wanting to know who or where can i get sells throttle bodies and a complete fitting guide for the whole thing ive also heard that i have to seem weld the engine bay now whats this and where abouts in the engine do i do it

any help will do appreciated please cheers damo

[donvaux]

the only welding that needs doing is the cross member,what year is the corsa as the later ones had strengthening on the cross member as standard, you can buy the kit off chris astley, qed do direct to head throttle bodies, or sbd also but i think qed would be cheaper

[philip2]

how much do you want to spend?
what your plabns for the car?
what brakes/suspension etc etc etc

need to know as much info about what your after from the car as poss.

do searches on google for:

QED
SBD
Jenvey

all sell throttle bodie kits. id suggest the QEd direct to head bodies, as for fitting, its not difficult, but you've got to get the car mapped on a rolling road anyway, so, if had to they will fit/make loom, and set it all up for you.

Rallyman off here will do all your mounts and stuff like hubs aswell. when i did my LET i used cavalier shafts and machined cavalier hubs(so they fit into the corsa bearing). as i say Rallyman off here will sort you out that stuff
