An XE won't need a cat. the engines are pre 95 so legally don't have to have one.


I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

It is done by the age of the block. Even if you have brand new everything else, all that matters is the manufacture year of the block. I know this as fact as I had to prove the age of the block for my xe for SVA as it is the deciding factor on emmisions.

That is the million dollar question. a letter and a £100 cheque to GM will get you what you need. Or the logbook from the donor car.

Other than that you are screwed really.
