\re you going to give me the £300 to buy it then??. i got this engine for £60 and they are only 16bhp down on the red-top. plus in america they are doing big things with the eco-tecs. they are actually a better engine just cost a fair bit to expose there full potentialDavie said:Better idea. Get rid of that AWFUL ecotec engine.
Replace it with a proper 16v lump, the red top version from a GSi.
Thet got 150bhp as standard, and its pretty easy to get 200bhp plus.
Much better engine. The ecotec was always a bit 'asthmatic'. :wink:
do you recon that will be strong enough for an exhaust manifold^neo^ said:You can buy dissimilar welding rods if you want to do it with a stick welder that are designed for cast - mild steel.
