Buying after conversion, or buying one and dropping the 2.0 in?

2.5K for the conversion with the cost of the car on top

Hmmn, difficult to say really, but I'd imagine anywhere around £2k upwards at a very rough guess? Too variable on the condition of car and engine, quality of converson, etc etc...

My mate has just bought a white corsa 1.4 sri on an M reg with the 2l already in it for 950 quid, its rapid, just needs a little tarting up hear and there, new front bumper etc. but i got hold of a gsi bumper and side skirts for 100 quid for it with the spots so it will look sound in a week or two and he'll deffo make his money back on it.

The Nova's need the engine bay strengthening don't they IIRC? Might want to check that if looking at one of those?
