Got my old engine out today and bolted new one in
No pics of it actually in as it slipped my mind and it's too dark to take one now. Also found out my head was going so good job I was changing it really
Next job Is to get it running and do the brakes

Well nearly finished the motor, just been doing the little bits that take fucking ages! Just need to finish gear selector (had to extend it) and sort exhaust (had to MAKE a new fucker!) straight through decat. And hopefully a trip to scrappy to get it running properly (fuel pump)- just cuts out when revved think it's starved of fuel as still rubbing on 1.2 pump . Get picks when it's finished

Any mpi corsa fuelpump is fine for a 2 litre engine so your 1.2 should be ok. Doubt your fuel pump is your problem.

Got my 1.2 badge from darrylH, cheers buddy . What do you guys think of them? Yes or no,
Next on the list will be to clean the engine bay up and get it looking mint, spray the wheels a light anthracite colour and get the body work back to spanking as some bits have been damaged within the past few weeks .
