They are always around and about on the net m8. I think I copied that one from a banger racing forum Just use your head and think who and where races 1600CVH motors. There are classes for these cars and engines, and items are always being swapped as people move up to a different class.

well the idea was 2 save all the money up for a rwd conversion with Zoo Motorsport.. and have a 2.0l zetec on t/b's.. and leavce it in storage til it can all b done at once.. but i can stand 2 see it doin nowt.. so im puttin it back on the road n binning the clio run around.

so wen it does hav rwd it have coilovers,weld in cage,4pots & cossie 4x4 rears, n a list of other fings u cud right on a loo roll

best of all it pisses ma folks off wen they see how much money is going into it!
