if i did a 2ltr i would be driving worried all the time thinking im gonna get caught out. im not sure it would be worth it

you tell the dvla after you have done it mate plus youve got to show them the conversion so they can say its road leagle

if you want a 2 litre dont talk about it f**k DO IT!! :L and i dont car about your views on his engine, he's using it cus redtops are old dinosaurs and rattly bastards, keep your opinions to yourself and get back to the subject of his car, DICKHEADS

you took the words right outta my mouth

im good like that

major update!!

been a busy boy ever since the engine mount arrived

got the new mount fitted to the engine


also finished tidying and modifying the xev wiring loom ,had to chop the plug off the corsa loom and splice it onto the xev loom and modify a couple of sensor wires as they were wrong


then it was time to get the engine in the car, had a helping hand from my dad for this so we dragged the engine out to the car and we had to wind the axle stands up so the engine would go under,


then we came to a bit of a problem the anti roll bar was in the way so off it came and the tie bar was swung out the way, loads of room then

we had to use a renault jack to get the engine up a bit so we could get the proper jack under, this was the really akward bit lmao but once the bigger jack was under the engine was easy to get into place, got it bolted up on the drivers side then had to loosen all the passenger side mount to get it too line up, all lined up ok then everything was tightened up, all in all took us about 2 hours to get it bolted up, then put the tie bar back on

heres a few pics of it






and the alternator clearance, which is good considering ive seen a few conversion with this engine and they rub on the chassis leg, cant get my head round why mine is like this but im not complaining


well thats what we got sone today, quite a lot really
