Welcome to the forum. 8v 4x4, they are rare as heck nowadays, amazing to see another one! I've got a V6 myself, great engines.

Stick around fella, it's a great friendly forum.

Welcome to cavmk3oc.com! :wave Nice to see another local-ish member too! :)

Get a Work In Progress thread up for your 4x4 V6 project. I don't know whether or not you saw the feature I wrote in last month's Total Vauxhall magazine, but Garry Coxon did exactly what you have planned - took an 8v 4x4 and fit a V6 up front. He uses it in Autocross, quite a beast, cool project.

Enjoy your stay!
