Now that PVD are no longer about, who would be the best people to get the 2.0 16v conversion kit from?

M-tech, Cossvaux etc....

How much am I looking at for the complete kit?

Ive done the swap in my nova, but the corsa is all new to me
Cant be arsed gathering bits for the job, rather buy the lot in one hit.

Thanks for any info

Shafts - use standard one that come with the 2lt 16v
Mount - lee can make for £60 or weld one yourself £5
SFi replacement - Top gear for a plate £25 and the rubber pipe from Vauxhall £12
Hub - any good lave shop can make them up(£20 for the hubs £40 for the work to make them right), or buy them from Coss vaux £100
any roll bar spacers - u bits a steel bloke with 2 holes in £5
