Would prob b a nova. V cheap conversion, but no-where near as good as the 16v.
Personnally, i'd rather have a 1.4 16v over a 1.6 8v.

Got for a 1.4 16v mate. Drops straight in, altho different header tank and radiator required.
Get em for bout £250-£300 quid, and it will only take ur insurance from grp 3->5. Not bad for double the power, and half the 0-60 time.
Oh, and get ur self a decent zaust, decat, filter etc with that and u'll be laughin right past the 100bhp mark.
