As far as I\'m aware that price is for fitting only.

But an engine only cost £350.

check out their website.

You may find it cheaper to find a Calibra/CavGSI/Astra GTE and break it for parts cheper than buying just an engine from a breakers yard. Also this way you can hear it running.

It\'s a bit of a drive for you cos they are based in Notts, but when it\'s finished i\'m sure it will be worth it.
