As damo said use a drill 
. Mark up your hole on the block work then drill lotsa holes like an outline. Then chop the hole out with a bolster.

i would chain drill it aswell
if you did get a core dril for that size,,, the drilling machine will be large,, and i would hate to see it snatch

I would have thought loads of drill holes and then knock it through , get Chris to do it would keep him busy, i presume it's for some ventilation

What i wanna know is what in the hell demands not one, but TWO 650mm holes in a wall?!
Still, won't need a lintel or support as its a load bearing shape

We figured the same, that if we cut a circular hole, it won't need a lintel.
So, it looks like it's going to be hard graft then?
Anyone want to come and do it in exchange for a RR tune??!!

LOL. Yes it is 3-phase. We have just bought a Danfoss Inverter to run it, giving us full speed control, I imagine that might be a little on the powerful side for your bog standard Citroen Saxo's.
See how that compares to what you see tomorrow!!

as all ready said mate chain drill it it wont take long and as for a core 650mm well that will take a big drill to turn that and if you can find a firm that can do it, it will probley cost quite a bit as i wont be a drill that you hold it will be on a frame / stand.

I dont think you will have to worry about straping the cars down, the puff from that beast should hold em back!!!!! You may have to book me in for a tune up soon as i had a dissapointing day on sunday The less said the better.

We had the fan running at the weekend. The Speed Controller has a digital display and we saw 19.4hp from it!!!
