looking good. wont be difficult to make up some adaptors to fit the TBs to the manifold.

should see about 150 bhp on standard cams if the mapping is good.

was either thinking for using a standard inlet (cut down) with samco hose to connect inlet to tb's

or get some flanges (same as on the inlet) weilded on the tb's so can just bolt together

as for trumpets im stuck. the butteryfly is a good 50mm from the top of the tb, so im thinking of 60mm trumpets, which i will probley make! (well get my dad too )

just bought myself

http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=320312

c16xe engine - comes with
sbd rollers
cool runnig thermostat
kent cambelt
sarches clutch

also leads, v6 capliers (need some discs now)

some poor condition red sparco's
spare c16xe bottom end
F13WR gearbox

should be coming next friday

next on the list is -

quick shift
265 cams
v6 disc's
megasquirt (extra code)
4 point harness
15" compomotive's or OZ ones (anything like the comp's)

then a cheap - good shell knackered engine sport or gsi (liking smoked grey)
(if you have any of the above, u2u me)

jus dont no weather to build the engine up standard (with uprated bits) to run in then remove the inlet and mangment, to fit throttle bodies and megasquirt (safest way, but longest)

this engine is NOW going in my car (1.4 16v green corsa - was going to put in a stripped out track day car) going to use the dbilas throttle bodies, using trumpets and a sausge filter rather than the inlet chamber that came with them

got to -
strip head (replace stem seals, and maybe 3 angle valve seats)
fit arp con-rod bolts
paint block
clean!
fit pulleys and get some cams reprofiled
