Yes had a gsi Without a mantzel but was pretty standard but this one goes very well apprently they add quite a few bhp with a few more sensible mods.
The waterpump pulley was on it's last legs and nearlly collapsed.
So that's being changed on weekend with a new timing belt kit for peice of mind, so hopefully be all sorted for coombe .

Cheers for comments guys, car went really well around coombe had alot of people comming up to me after the session asking to see the engine, alot thought it was a redtop and a few were shocked it was pretty original with the c16xe.

Took the GSi too TVL and had a real good time was a good event shame i didnt get to meet many of you lot.
Thought it would be rude not to get on the track lol, car went really well and was pleased had no issues what so ever car run spot on alot of people thought she was a redtop
Ive decided not to part with it now due to circumstances changing and id be sad to see it go so going to be doing a few things to make her tidy inc a full respray.
Also going to upgrade to braided brake lines and a rear disc conversion.
some pics ive found;
Cheers
