Cheers Josh.
Nothing happening ATM. Trying to save for an engine so nothing's getting bought for it. Just sat on drive. Keep giving it a quick start and it's all ok. Just wanna get it all fitted and be able to drive it.
Bring on the 2012 shows and Yorkshire meets.

Disconnect the battery, Keep as little petrol in it as poss (To save expensive petrol going off), No real need to start it. Make sure the tyre pressures are correct or keep the weight off the tyres altogether.
Just a bit of help, Don't know if you need it.
Will be nice to have some power to match the rest of the mods.

Let would be an absolute beast of a daily driver
Good to see your not rushing into it Dan and weighing up all your options first Bigger engine will definitely complete the car

Daily drivers are where it's at! Although mine is shockingly dirty at the moment!

Let is damn expensive, buying plus rebuild. Wouldn't be a easy first conversion either.
You planning on getting the engine done/in before show season? Best get cracking

what sort of budget are you thinking? are we talking bodies and management or a standard lump?
i had a 12xe before and loved it to bits but alway wished it had that extra bit of umph, 16xe imo
also in regards to alex's helpful comment, petrol alters its molecular state after 3 month

Thanks for all the tips guys,especially Alex.
Like Shaun said I'm going to take me time in what I'm doing first. All I want for next year is to have my bonnet open.

It was obvious you would pick a 2.0 lol. The more time you have to do it, better the final result will be.
Good clean bay, maybe weld up some holes etc like I did. Don't go Kieran mad on it though, be sweet.
