hi peeps, i havent made a real introduction on this site iv just seen surfing it and advertising wanted and sale adverts so here goes, my names Harvey im 21, 22 in February. this is my fourth corsa iv owned, first one i ran into the ground then scrapped it, second i split for bits, third i bought to sell, also owned a classic mini that i did up and sold, a mk1 caddy pickup that i sold not long ago, and now own a series 1 land rover, series 3 land rover, rotten jaguar xjs V12, and this is my 4th corsa it started life as a lovely standard one previous owner 2000 plate corsa 1.4 16v completely standard but it couldnt stay like that for long .



then i got some different wheels cavalier slabs, coilovers on the front and coilover springs on the back with stiffened shocks on the rear to, and then sourced a GSI kit, mate a mate to make me a bonnet, sourced some morette headlights, sourced some rare MHW rear lights, and with it being a 1.4 16v i sourced a power box inlet to go on the engine and with a de-cat and stainless centre and back box it made 106.2 on dyno with readout and then got it all sprayed up and it looked like this.











then got bored of the power, and i already in the shed had a 2.0 16v redtop that i sourced a few years ago and collected bits and this is it with it fitted







and this is what iv been collecting for it next im planning on putting twin dellorto 45 carburettors on it along with Kent Cam AST 1612 cams which are mild road cams as i dont want to re-build the bottom end just yet, as anything more than these cams and i need pocketed pistons, they can be sourced in a few years time, also im going to get my late type XE head to be ported and polishedas they have larger ports than the coscast heads and can do the porous mod at the same time which with the non coscast type heads sometimes have a problem with, also i'l source some ARP rod bolts as i wont be running a limiter so a bit more protection for the engine will be nice, and thanks to Pushrod King on here i now have a facet redtop pump and a Filter King regulator ready to start my fuel system, just need to source a swirl pot and get some braided fuel hose off ebay then the fuel system is complete. and some Late type square toothed vernier pulleys. and planning on getting a John Ashley 2.5 inch bore exhaust manifold and i can get a 308 grade stainless 2.5 inch bore exhaust system aswell of someone on another forum not far from me aswell.

here are photos of what i have so far,

kent AST 1612





poly bushed rear beam with whiteline rear anti roll bar which has now been installed.



and my twin 45 dellorto carbs and cams mocked up on my coscast head that iv now sold.







and here is the pump and regulator not the best photo but you get the idea



thats it for now, sorry for the amount of photos

yea im not to sure about the fan blades now tho as i'l be running a 2.5 inch exhaust system so i'l need the space under the car, so im thinking of getting 16's and lifting her a little on the coilovers to suit aswell, as i have to drive it on back roads and i catch the manifold as it is let' alone it being a 2.5 inch one.

i smashed another inner CV joint today, so think its time to upgrade to 16's and lift the car on the coilovers a bit, plus look at trying to lift the gearbox up slightly :/ third one its done now since its been made.
