Looking good would be a major improvement if you ditched the Saxo spoiler and the black vents.

Will be excellent to see the engine up and running!

Andy you know because the conversion is going sooo well and should be up and running soon.....

Well would it be as simple to put the z20leh astra vxr engine in a B using same management and mounts youve used etc?

Need to think about future plans you see

Nice one

So the clutch and box is easy enough to get around and so is the wiring but one more thing you need to answer if you would please darling and thats the fly by wire throttle

How have you got around that..is that why youve used x16xe tb? Has that been modified in someway to work with the vxr engine and original throttle cable from the B?

At a guess, Because he is using aftermarket management he has got rid of the fly by wire and just uses a cable throttle.
