Default some pics of the new engine in the astra f.a.o weston lot

i know i aint been around for a while but work seems to be busy at the moment and when i aint been in work i have been working on this the tb's have now been sold decided the only way to acheive the kind of power i wanted was to go turbo so here it is now






i am hoping this time it will be more reliable as i am putting the calibra turbo gearbox in so hopefully i will not break then like i was (4 in a month aint good )

then i can give you that ride i keep promising you douge and have another grudge matc with mr cready
