Lost count of the number of engine conversions - many ended up as feature cars - I think about 22 at the last count - it turned into a blurr after about the 10th - Conversions include 2ltr 16v mk1/mk2 astras, corsa b 1.6 throttle bodies, 2ltr 16v's and turbo, cav turbo, numerous novas (won car of the show 2 years on the trot with different cars at pcc national days) including Brett Warburtons WRC nova, Martin kelsons 2ltr nova, rick marlands 2 ltr nova, brett rogan v6 nova to name but a few - Rumour has it that i am in the process of building a twin engine nova 4 myself - watch this space
