The valve has parted company from the head and decided to attack a route downwards.

I fancy the c16xe.

With reference to it not being a nova sport no its not, but im sure in years to come it would be sort after

She would like a LET, obviously the power, and im fully aware of the brake and suspension upgrades that would be needed.

c16 it is then

I don't mean that you wouldn't do the brake/suspension, I mean if you do you veer even further away from the standard car.

keep it like it came out of the factory

will attract the right attention from the people that know and they are becoming rarer and rarer now which is only a good thing for the future

The collets let go and the valve pings out. A sticky valve is different because the valve is still in place and not rattling round the bottom end somwhere.
