ye i'm liking the sleeper look also and the cav slabs my mate has got them, i've got a set of cesaro wheels that i'm gonna paint white but may have changed my mind and fit some 15" steelies with wheel trims and make it even more of a sleeper lol

C20NET is the C20NE from a cav that i'm going to fit a turbo to it mieran, ye it was from davey in ciren craig and cheers dan.well all was going really good this morning, we got the engine and box out quick and easy and then i was gonna fit the lightened fly-wheel off the redtop onto the 8v but the bolt holes are different, trip to my garage to get the original fly-wheel for 8v and redtop clutch does'nt fit it, trip home to grab the clutch i bought new off ebay about 6 months ago to find out its the same has the redtop 1 now gotta order a clutch that will fit the 8v fly-wheel and F20 box. pics to follow
