No worries mate, I looked into this with the X30XE so it's much the same... just wondering how different your crank will be to a 2 litre crank, because if its basically the same you could swop yours for a LET crank which, with dished pistons, should sort the CR... don't hold me to that thouSuper_Cav wrote:thank you squig for the info there, well the only reason im thinking long and hard about doing it is , the engine itself will prob be cheap and once I start to buy the rest of the bits it will all seem cheap enough lol easily do it for less than 1k and dont realy need to mess about with brakes and so on lol untill i get silly i would be happy with 150- 200 bhp lol
on another note anyone got a 1.8i Engine forsale ha ha![]()
Cheers Danny
look into the decompression plate as it's pretty much just a thicker head gasket and they aren't that expensive... cheap way of doing it and perfectly safe for a low boost engineSuper_Cav wrote:hmm I dont think this will ever lift off for the fact i havent got 1.5k to waste lol and also if i did im sure u can buy a cheap nova redtop for that![]()
