well the stuff i have priced up comes too - £2284 seals and gaskets will be pence, shouldnt need a new water and oil pump if you get a decent engine in the first place. wouldnt u be better off getting a remapped chip rather than a power boost valve?

for one you can get the brakes for 200 quid, 700 quid is well overpriced for an engine, if cossvaux are sourcing it for you they will have added on about 100% as thats what they told me they did when adam kindness had his engine conversion done there.

v6 ones arent 288mm they are 284mm its turbo ones which are. i have 288mm turbo front brakes. the kit which cossvaux supply is 284mm with vectra v6 calipers. the 288mm discs will not work with v6 calipers.

look around for parts andy, cossvaux arent exactly the cheapest of people, fair play getting them to do it all but try and source the bits from other places. get this months tv, there is quite a few places which undercut pvd , regal and cossvaux by quite a lot.

They will do a good job granted, but for the dollar you would expect them to. A lot of the work could be done yourself, brake conversion for example. You could get the parts cheaper and supply a different person with them and get them to do the same job as cossvaux and I am sure you will get a lower price overall. It cant be bad saving some money as there are always other things to spend it on.
