From all I have heard its not a worth while thing to do the port spacing is very different for one.

Rob,

I would never do it to mine. But had me thinking how it would even work? The throats on a CVH and YB inlet must be miles apart.

Had a cossie inlet on my van, the port spacings are a mile off! I had to make up a spacer plate.

That's my mates car! He bought the engine from a guy that lives in Dunfermline he used too install rolling roads or something! He built the engine as a sort of I can do better than 1 of the guys from sitech he told us when we went too view the engine don't know if there's any truth in that tho he also said he had the engine on a bench dyno at dastek and had 400 odd bhp out it! Also dont know if that's the case either maybe nik could shed some light on this if he can remember?

Cheers
Craig

Probably would have more justice if it had print out? Im sure ive seen your car in your sig about Dundee too. Your shape always catches my eye from when I had my GTi and Si.

Wilky, I like the 8 injectors squeezed into your inlet!

Same here, the only reason I bought an Si was because my GTi was rotten.

I was only 18 and the insurance difference between an Escort GTi and an Si with all the GTi bits on fully declared was ridiculous, so cheap. Thinking back I don't know why I bought one.

My daily is a grey Alfa Mito at the moment.
