Just some quick question's

What mounts do i have to use?

Im assuming the wiring is colour for colour on the loom side?

I know inner cv's will need to be changed unless i get big block legs and driveshafts as the van is only 22spline at the moment

The diesel tank need to be changed? or can that be modified to suit?

Astra 16v rad or the diesel one?

i've done a redtop and a turbo corsa so im thinking its virtually the same bars a few bit????

Any other tips or things i've missed would help thank you

Wasn't the Mk3 astra GSI a redtop engine? if so, get a set of mounts from there?
