well. broke 2nd gear

196bhp 149lbft


pretty quick, quicker than my astra gsi with 256bhp, as that was atad slower than my mates corsa c 1.8 turbo, of which iv got the upper hand on


my corsa c 1.8 turbo 260bhp




fixed the running like a bad of shit issue, had high lift cams in - fitted standard, now fine
head gasket was also gone, but could work out why there where standard heigh pistons in it, on a 'low comp' engine, soo took one out - forged and steel rods BUT standard compression wtf is the point in that
some bits and bobs been doing to a type r

my old corsa, inlet cams, release bearing

They sure do, there is a small pit so they sit flush with the floor.
